Some other time I'll do a blogpost on the many things to do and experience while in Coney Island, but today I'm going to just blog about Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs.
1916 Polish immigrant, Nathan Handwerker opened his first hot dog stand in Coney Island, manufactured with a recipe from his wife, Ida. Nathan's is mostly known to people outside of NYC for their annual hot dog eating contest on July 4th. This actually has a history that goes back to the year of Nathan's beginning. Four European immigrants were arguing over who was more patriotic and the winner was the one who ate the most of Nathan's hot dogs.

My favorite thing to get there is a corn dog (which I dip in mustard), crinkle cut french fries with cheese on top and my absolute favorite (I could drink a gallon of it).
