Hotdogs in a new way taste delightful
I am so blessed for countless reasons, including getting paid to eat.
This aspect of my job, however, brings inherent challenges. I'm a plump woman who is determined not to get any plumper on the job, and Hotdog Queen did not make that any easier.
The new hotdog joint, at 8724-D S.C. 707 in the Burgess community, has flavor to savor.
I actually fell harder for the hamburgers, which are made fresh with finely chopped onion and garlic premixed into the ground beef.
I watched as Andrew Oakes, one of the owners, placed my fat burger onto the grill. I was thinking, "How am I going to eat all of that?"
I loved my cheeseburger. Hotdog Queen easily puts the smackdown on other burgers I've tried. It was juicy, and I loved the fact that I could taste onions and garlic in each bite.
Don't worry. The taste isn't overwhelming, and Andrew Oakes, 23, and his sister, Denise Perry, 32, will make you a burger sans onions and garlic if you ask.
The eatery's name is in honor of Denise winning at least 300 pageants when she was a girl.
She and Andrew opened the eatery Oct. 3 after their mother, Marie Oakes, gave them some cash from her retirement fund. Mama Oakes, you made a great investment. Denise and Andrew have brought fun, creativity and taste together in one spot.
Tell me, what other restaurant do you know on the Grand Strand that sells Kool-Aid (yeah, you read that right), cupcakes, deviled eggs, chicken livers, fried pickles and specialty hot dogs topped with pineapple and coconut?
Each week, Denise unveils a list of eclectic hot dogs.
The week I visited the hot dogs included the Greek dog that came with cucumbers, feta cheese, pepperconi peppers and homemade tazaki sauce.
All the specialty dogs feature all-beef frankfurters, although the 99 cent hot dog doesn't. I tried the chili dog (with ketchup, mustard and onions) for 99 cents, and it was OK. The chili was good, but the weiner lacked taste. Next time, I'll request a Sabrett frankfurter.
Still, I have added Hotdog Queen to my list of favorite places to eat.
Prices range from 99 cents for a hot dog loaded with traditional toppings (including chili) to $3.49 for a barbecue sandwich or chicken finger burger. The hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.
Call 650-8336. Las Vegas meets Louis Oh, I wanted to be in Las Vegas today with Louis Osteen for the opening of Louis's Las Vegas.
The esteemed Pawleys Island chef will introduce his Lowcountry Southern cuisine to 300 guests before the grand opening Dec. 5.
Back in July, Louis told me the venture would cost him "north of $5 million."
It is located within Town Square, which holds more than 150 retail shops, a children's park, 12 restaurants and other businesses at the 1.5-million-square-foot facility.
Centra Properties and Turnberry Associates developed Town Square.
Osteen, named the 2004 American Best Express Chef in the Southeast by the James Beard Foundation (the Oscars of food competition), will certainly dazzle his new customers, as he has won lots of us over with his boyish charm and country-boy ways.
Much success to Louis and his lovely wife, Marlene, on this latest venture.
If, like me, you can't get to Las Vegas today, you can get Louis's fare at Louis's at Pawleys and The Fish Camp Bar at 10880 U.S. 17.
Call 237-8757. If you are bound for Las Vegas, call 702-202-2400 for reservations. Market Common eateriesThe Divine Dining Group has announced the names of its latest eateries, which will be on the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base.
Roy and Sid's American Kitchen will feature American fare with a country kick of sass.
I tried the restaurant's grilled shrimp and brie sandwich at the 24th Annual Taste of the Town, and it was a delicious blend of tastes. Roy and Sid's will have the same menu for lunch and dinner.
I previewed the menu, and it looks downright delicious. Housemade pimento cheese and blue cheese slaw are among the appetizers, while other items include a portobello burger and roast chicken and orzo soup.
The second restaurant, Divine Prime, will offer steaks, including a 20-ounce one called cowboy, and Alaskan halibut with seared and roasted brunoise ( a fancy way of saying food is julienned and then turned 90 degrees and diced again) and tarragon broth.
Kurt D'Aurizio, director of cuisine for the Divine Dining Group, said the eateries are slated to open at the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base in mid-March, with the retail portion of Market Common opening in April.
Stay tuned to Eateries for more details.
