Hampton Roads (Norfolk/Va. Beach/Hampton/Newport News) hot dogs - Mon, 10/12/09 8:16 AM
When we moved to Norfolk last year, we knew about some of the local food specialties.  What has surprised me is the number of independent hot dog places around.  What are your favorites?

Only three thus far:

1) Doug's was pretty good.  Was there late in the day, will have to try it again around lunchtime.

2) Perfectly Frank (the one by ODU).  It's fine but the best I've been to.

3) Dog and Burger Grille in Ghent.  The food and atmosphere are very good.  Not sure it would get all the buzz it does if it wasn't located in Ghent.

I need to try some more places around the area...
