Hot Dogs may be a staple to many. And there's nothing wrong with that.
A good dog is hard to come by in many places across our great land.
With that said, we NYers are truly blessed.
For me... Papaya King, Gray's Papaya, Katz's Deli, and now Crif Dogs in the East Village has made me a true believer in the simple but oh so satisfying quick eats.

Crif Dogs in a nut shell caters to the drunk crowd. After heavy drinking and partying, you want something manageable with your two bare hands. Something rugged and a little bit offensive.
A stacked hot dog with a milk shake or rootbeer soda to wash it down with is certainly what the doctor orders.

I was with Aramis the other night and he had the bright idea of driving to Crif's and feasting on some of their specialties. Mind you, we had eaten a full meal a couple hours prior... But we are growing boys so a second feast was in order.
We each had one of the following :
- Chihuahua ***
Bacon wrapped dog, deepfried, and topped with sour cream and sliced avocados.
- Good Morning Dog *
Bacon wrapped dog, deepfried, melted cheese with a fried egg wedged into the bun.
- Chilidog *
Pretty decent chili on top of a deepfried blistered dog.
- Plain
As is


update...
I went again Sunday and ordered the Chihuahua Dog again... But this time, I added some salsa on top. EVEN BETTER!!!
The other dog was the Redneck Spicy Dog. Not very spicy, but never the less, quite good.

Ladies and Gents, this place is a must go...
