Hi Eric,

We will FIND YOU...if given some directional guidance. Really...I drive 2 hours for a bbq sandwich, so getting off the the interstate and looking for you is reasonably consistent with my food-hunter personality!!

We'll find you when you open and look forward to a great dog!

Best!

Chef salad,

Unfortunatley we are no where near Trenton--yet.  but who knows, someday perhaps in Central Virginia... all it takes is a dollar and a dream.

Glad it worked out! I will stop in if I'm still working in the area when you open.

Thank God for tea! What would the world do without tea? How did it exist? I am glad I was not born before tea!

The great thing about barbeque is that when you get hungry 3 hours later....you can lick your fingers

Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

Ya--definitely better! And between you and Mardi Gras, it's now officially a trend to show old-fashioned food-related items in the front window of your store! :laugh:

Btw, nice license plate, Eric--noticed it on the way out last night. :smile:

Eric, by the way. Good luck with the restaurant. I'll be in.

Yeah, probably to steal my ideas and convert AAG into AAHDG (An American HOT DOG Grill!! :laugh::raz:

I look forward to the day that I may serve one of, in my humble opinion, the greatest chefs known to mankind! at least in New Jersey,..um...Randolph that is.

Seriously I'd love to see you.

WE HAVE A RESTAURANT PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!  We got approval by way of unanimous vote.  Our perserverance has paid off and this chapter of the Amazing Hot Dog story is closed.  Now we get to work our butts off and spend a whole lotta money.  gOing for permits tomorrow AM and calling all our contractors and equiptment vendors who have been waiting in the wings.  I am so relieved.  I'll try to document as best as I can both verbally and visually ie photos.  Thanks for all your support thus far and if you ever drive by and see the door open or lights on PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop by and say hello.

Eric

I'm very late on this, but congratulations! Can't wait to stop by for a hotdog!
