Hooray for the Hot Dog vendor in Civic Center plaza.  He left before I could finish my deadline so I wasn't able to get over there to enjoy the offering.  In any case, it was refreshing to hear of a little activity there.

Do they offer something that wont kill you, like perhaps a soy or tofu dog? [:P]

Probably not.  It was probably a heart attack in a bun but he could be serving s&it on a stick and I would welcome the presence of the street vendor.  

It's like the preacher men in the plaza.  Who cares what they are preaching.  It's a nice sign of life.  My favorites are the Jesus crusaders in their black robes and red bandanas that hold up signs for the bus riders to look at while king crusader spits on the mic.

I love specific types of street vendor dogs.  Those very long skinny ones rule.  However the big plump Sausage types are great if cooked on a hot grill.

Up North I always ate Bratwurst those big German sausages cooked over hot coals, soaked in beer first. Yummy to the max!

My all time fav was the Chicago Dog at Der Weinersnitzel Stands.  Dog, Bun, Sour Kraut, Long Sliced Kosher Dill Pickle, Tomato wedges, dog wrapped in cheese.  Almost gives me a flash back munchie memory charge from the early 70's on Brookside.  Believe there may of been a few thousand pot holes in that parking lot as well.

Mexican trailer at 2nd and Lewis features a Mexican Hot Dog, with mustard, mayo, ketchup, real bacon bits, shredded chedar cheese, diced jalapenos tomatoes and onions Sour Cream Salsa and what ever else you like on it that the have on board the coach.  Totally different Dog.  

Here are few others.

Watched a few episodes of Ben Matlock staring Andy Griffith, he was a Hot Dog crazed lover but nothing like this guy....  

Takeru Kobayashi is the world's fastest hot dog eater.[5] In 2002 he beat his previous record by one half of a hot dog, consuming 50.5 Nathan's famous hot dogs and buns in 12 minutes. On July 4, 2006, he set a new record when he ate 53.75 in the same amount of time

I miss the Der Wienerschnitzel that was at 21st & Harvard.  My fave was the Polish sandwich.

Wasn't there a second or third location in Tulsa?  Like somewhere out on South Peoria?

Is there any place in town where one can get a good Chicago dog?

We've got plenty of Coney Islands in Tulsa but I haven't found a place with Chicago dogs yet.

Also, if this hot dog cart vendor is reading this forum, he really needs to set up shop in the Blue Dome area from about 9 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. on Friday-Saturday nights. That area, while not lacking in drunks, is seriously lacking in drunk food. Any kind of food vendor would clean up over there.

The plaza ain't so bad. I think it has tons of potential, that's why I am so disturbed by the fact that the city is in such a rush to demolish it.

Apparently the hot dog vendor, or another hot dog vendor, reads this board.

There was a hot dog cart out late Saturday night at the Blue Dome. That was fast.

I liked the polish sandwich too.  I remember many Der Wienerschnitzels all around Tulsa in the late 60s-early 70s.  The one we always went to was at 17th & Sheridan, in the parking lot of the strip center on the east side of Sheridan.  It was an A-frame building that you drove through.  We used to go there at least twice a week in high school.  "Der Wiener" and Burger Chef were our main off-campus lunch spots back then.
