I treated my brother and his friend to a celebration lunch at the Hot Dog Diner this past weekend. The reason for celebration is a whole other story, but we were totally celebrating the awesome comfort food at the Hot Dog Diner located at 4407 Brookpark Road in Parma. The decor is simple Cleveland memorabilia on bright mustard yellow walls. It’s a happy place with friendly and fast service.
My brother got the Fry Daddy Burger and Tyler’s Cheezy Fries Dog. This would be the two items on the menu that come with cheese-covered french fries on top of your sandwich. He said that it was one of the best burgers he has ever had the pleasure to eat. He loved how it tasted homemade and the texture of a hand packed patty. In fact, he had half of the burger in his stomach before I could even get my camera out for a picture.
My brother’s friend ordered two Wagon Train Dogs, topped with chili, sour cream and onions. He enjoyed every bite. I devoured a Windy City Wiener, Snappy style with mustard, onion, tomatoes, pickle spear, cucumber and celery salt. We shared a large chili cheese fries. There was not a drop of chili left on any of our paper hot dog holders!
The buns are soft, the hot dogs have a little crunch to the skin and the toppings are so tasty and fresh. What a treat of yumminess with a side of fat and cholesterol. It was worth every bite:-)
