Botsford Drive-In

"This "Works" dog is resting on its wrapper on a car seat ... the location where most Botsford drive-in hot dogs are consumed."
Michael Stern






"There's a broad parking lot all around, but barely room to stand inside at the order windows."
Michael Stern



"This picture shows not only the sweet, garlicky onion sauce, but also the generous length of the hot dog -- base price, $1.25! -- as well as the classic split-top Yankee bun."
Michael Stern



"A close-up of Botsford chili. At $2, a chili dog is twice the price of a standard long dog, but there's a lot of extra meat here."
Michael Stern



"We do love plump hot dogs, but there is something extremely appealing about these tube steaks that shrivel a bit when they fry, and snap when bitten."
Michael Stern
