Gray's Papaya @ New York

Famed for having Anthony Bourdain's personal stamp of endorsement, this packed Hotdog corner shop is just as an important landmark as any. Conveniently located just a stone's throw away from the subway, getting here is also just a breeze. Just take the redline to 72 st, and once you emerge from the underground commute, look around, Gray's Papaya is hard to miss.

The whiff of smokey hotdog that greets you as you open the doors is a plesant, welcoming feeling no matter the season. With such fancy, cool sounding drinks like Pina Colada, Papaya Milk, Coconut juice, it just adds an exotic twist to an otherwise frosty winter. 

 

The hotdog, nice smokey grilled aroma, married with sourkraut gives a nice savory taste with an acidic twang, that makes you go "whooo, now that's a hot dog!"

According to Anthony Bordain's featurette of  Gray's Papaya, they had a recession special of $2.75 for 2 hotdogs and a drinks. But I guess as America climbs out of a recession and into a stagflation prices are now $4.95
