Few things in life are quite as satisfying as sharing tastes from our own childhood with the youngest generation. Hot dogs top the list, as far as many are concerned. They’re simple, affordable, and have left indelible impressions in our senses that immediately take us back to our childhood whenever we have the pleasure of devouring one.

Disclaimer: Hot Dog Headquarters has varied hours of operation. To learn more about when they’re open, visit the official Facebook page!

Have a hot dog with the youngest members in your family and take a step back in time.

Bring an especially large appetite so you can have several hot dogs in one visit. Dogs this good don’t come along just every day (unless, of course, you happen to LIVE in Lillington).

Choose from the New York, Chicago, and Sante Fe dogs, among others. Or go for something a bit different and ask for fresh jalapenos and cheddar cheese. There are no wrong ways to top a hot dog.

Get the bun toasted, too. The added crispness will help hold the toppings in place (plus, it just tastes better).
