Los Angeles has Pink's: last time I was there, there was a line around the block (literally). There's also Tail of the Pup (more of an icon, really). Sonora Dogs are the best but you need to head inland for those.Do Bianchihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12744434741371288465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-55294085788030691312008-07-15T14:25:00.000-04:002008-07-15T14:25:00.000-04:00Kabinett would be great on a Sunday morning, when ...Kabinett would be great on a Sunday morning, when 8.5% is just right. But for din-din, I'd go with a touch more body. Think of your dogs and kraut as stripped down, simplified Choucroute. A Spätlese halbtrocken should be about right. Or you could try the 2007 "Lenz" from Emrich-Schönleber, which is delicious and should be available at CSW and/or MB in NY at the moment.David McDuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274955351036700406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-43575406804248527232008-07-15T08:51:00.000-04:002008-07-15T08:51:00.000-04:00Have to say I'd agree with the posters here, I'd g...Have to say I'd agree with the posters here, I'd go with Riesling too. Sounds lovely (?), especially on a hot summer's day... Actually, we enjoyed fantastic and spicy Thai last weekend, when it was 95F outside, so spicy + heat may be the way to go.<BR/>Cheers!Vinotashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17858833067614152970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-42334569386944851202008-07-14T21:47:00.000-04:002008-07-14T21:47:00.000-04:00Hi BKG - is there a relation between Gray's papaya...Hi BKG - is there a relation between Gray's papaya and Papaya King? I used to a live a few blocks from Gray's. I'm with McD on the Riesling, although Grauburgunder would also work quite well. Also like the non-Gewurtz Alsace stuff with saucisses...Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07747056255576335926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-78624362660675588552008-07-14T20:21:00.000-04:002008-07-14T20:21:00.000-04:00jeremy - didn't know you were a fan of the dog. is...jeremy - didn't know you were a fan of the dog. is there a recommended place in the SD?<BR/><BR/>McD - applegate stadium beef franks, skinless. i prefer a casing, actually, but this brand makes 'em with no antibiotics, hormone free, etc. and let me make sure i understand: you're recommending Riesling with a dog loaded with kraut and mustard? that sounds REALLY good actually. they are sausages, after all, from Germany. kabinett? what do you have in mind?<BR/><BR/>sean - you're washington state sean, right? your savagnin suggestion also makes perfect sense, in the same swiss border, sausage kind of way. that is one for the books too. both riesling and savagnin make more sense, now that i think about it, then a bojo. and thanks for your sunday morning support.Brooklynguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16321573602782343974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-82981521974432984832008-07-14T18:50:00.000-04:002008-07-14T18:50:00.000-04:00I hate to tell you, BWG, but I found the perfect h...I hate to tell you, BWG, but I found the perfect hot-dog wine. Of all things, Savignin from the Cotes du Jura. Who'd'a thunk it? Not with the elaborate, super-yummy, phantasmagoric topping you concocted, but with a simple, straight-up dog, the weird, oxidized brininess of the Savignin goes perfectly with that savory, juicy meat...Bizarre, I know, but just right. And when you slather a bit of mustard on, the faint citrus notes of the Savignin just scream out...Forgive me for running on, but it was one of those moments, you know? I had a 2002 Jean Rijckwaert (les Sarres) but try whatever you can get...You're in for a wild ride!<BR/><BR/>And for the record, a wee drop on a Sunday morning couldn't do any harm...Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12840433543804906851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-25925214901829362992008-07-14T14:33:00.000-04:002008-07-14T14:33:00.000-04:00Neil, What kind of dog did you use?
