Coming Sunday: Wiener heaven
The subject of Sunday's "The Writing's On (and off) The Wall" is "Hot Dog Nation" -- particularily, about 10 choices of dogs served up by the Red Sox's Single-A Lancaster JetHawks and how their menu stacks up against the major-league wieners at "other" parks around Southern California.
Start with a half-pound hot dog, topped with chili, cheddar and jack cheese and onions and wrapped in a flour tortilla -- the chili-cheese burrito dog, $7.25. It's part of "Senor KaBoom's Cantina" Mexican food menu that has no fast-food sponsor logo attached to it. ... imagine that.
Oh, and there's a $6.25 Nacho Grande Dog: A quarterpounder on a toasted bun topped with nacho cheese, salsa, jalapenos and topped with crushed tortilla chips.
Ole.
Although, that Monstah Dog ain't bad: A foot-long, all beef, with kraut, mustard and onions, for just $6.... It would make the guys at Pinks' blush.
That's a hot dog, from the "Wiener Würstchen," which means Viennese sausage. And translates to baseball in any language.
You say Dodger Dog, we say we'll see ya in Lancaster.
