LONNIE HAMMARGREN'S CASTILLO DEL SOL

4300 Ridgecrest Dr
Las Vegas, NV 89121

Going to the Hammargren House annual open house was like being allowed to enter Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, only instead of Oompa Loompas and candy, there were dinosaurs, roller coasters, space shuttles and the Taj Mahal. And hot dogs.

All ordered a hot dog at the backyard bar.

Eric: "Pretty okay."

Susan: "The experience was heightened by the fact that I had to walk through a brothel and a hidden mine shaft in order to eat."
**5**

Jamaal: "I gave the dogs a 2; it would have been a one, because I could have made them myself, but they were served to me at the Hammargren House, and there were cookies available."

GYPSY CARAVAN ANTIQUES

At First Friday
1302 S 3rd Street
Las Vegas, NV 89104
(702) 868-3302

Both ordered a hot dog.

Susan: The server might have had a Russian accent, but maybe it was just the romance of the gypsy caravan. There were no handwashing facilities nearby, and nobody wore gloves.

Eric: "I liked it."

BIG AL'S CHICAGO DELI

At McCarran International Airport
Las Vegas, NV

Eric was dropping Susan off at the airport; they had a few minutes for a dog. Both got a Chicago Dog; they had to eat at a Starbucks kiosk because there was no seating. What's up with hot dog places and guys named Al?

Susan: "Hey, Airport Security! X-ray THIS! This dog is dangerously delicious!"
**5**

Eric: "It's not terror-able!"

CAREFUL KITTY'S CAFE

At the El Cortez Hotel & Casino
600 Fremont St.
Las Vegas, NV 89101

Eric and Susan: Both got the Vienna Hot Dog
**5**

The waitress, Myong, said it was "world famous." It was the first real Chicago dog we've had from a casino, and had a real Vienna beef dog that snapped. We were happy it came with fries.

FAMOUS UNCLE AL'S HOT DOGS & GRILLE

6010 W. Craig Road
Las Vegas, NV 89130
(702) 877-DOGS

Susan: San Antonio Dog (chili, cheddar, bacon, onions and jalapeños); "It was good, but everything tasted like it came out of a can, except the dog--but good. 'KID NATION' IS ON TV!"
**4**

Spencer: Chicago Dog (mustard, relish, onions, tomato, dill pickle spear, sport peppers, celery salt, poppy seed bun); "Scrumpturalescent." "They only filled the drink cups 7/8 full of ice, which is not very efficient."
**5**

Eric: The Boston (spicy mustard sauerkraut). "The sauerkraut was good."
**5**

Atlanta "Slaw" Dog. "The slaw wasn't good."
**4**

The waitress couldn't recommend any of the dogs because she hadn't tried any. This was sad. The restaurant staff was like "Kid Nation." There were no adults present. Can this franchise survive?!
