Coney Island Hotdog
Coney Island Hotdogs became a big deal in the early 1900’s, in Coney Island of course. But soon became standard fair for carts and diners across the States. A hotdog topped with a savory ground meat sauce, onions and mustard. Do try the onions and mustard – there is a reason the Coney Island is so famous!

Notes
One of the obvious choices is to drink a beer with a hotdog.
If you prefer wine, a New World Merlot works beautifully. Because the toppings are very flavourful a red actually works well.

• Cold Garden Dandelion’s Blonde Ale
