Ted’s Hot Dogs is a Buffalo, New York, institution since 1927. Lucky for us here in Arizona, Spiro, whose father opened the original Ted’s in Buffalo, started the Tempe branch many years ago so he could get away from the freezing Buffalo winters. With my aunt and uncle’s 60th anniversary fast approaching, I picked up a 3-pound bag of original Ted’s hot dogs and their famous hot sauce to take with me to California. Our folks haven’t had a Ted’s hot dog in years and as they can miss their old hometown from time to time, this connection to Buffalo will help make celebrating their anniversary all the better.
I think Avery Ant rocks!
P.S. Nice photos by the way!
love Ted’s, lemme know next time you’re in tempe and I’ll meat you there, get it?, meat you there?!? HA HA HA HA HA HA!
Yeah, they have those Sahlen’s hot dogs they ship in from New York over there. Good stuff. Also, the corn dogs are quite good, even though they aren’t on the menu. But usually I end uip getting a white hot or a polish sausage…such good meat AND it’s charcoal broiled. My only qualm is that they take cash only, but with all of the issues with cards and checks and the fact that people will go there regardless (I know I’LL stop at teh drive thru ATM in that plaza)it’s a moot point.
