Most people would agree that a hotdog and a ballgame go hand-in-hand. Even those people who don’t eat meat (me included) find themselves yearning after the oddly delicious smell of the processed meat. What might not seem so natural is a hotdog coupled with high-end shopping.

University Village, in Seattle, WA, is known for its high-end shops and its overpowering population of upper-class middle-aged women. So where do the hotdogs fit in?

Well, they are nestled in the heart of the village between Pasta & Co. and Ralph Lauren’s Rugby.

The man bringing the game to the village is Allen “the hotdog guy”.

He makes it a point to be acquainted with the employees of the village, as he is a frequent lunch stop for many.

The selection is impressive for the size of the cart; he even has chicken-dogs.

So, as it is the off-season for the baseball games, perhaps a great alternative to the stadium may be University Village. And, after dropping a considerable amount of money on that newest pair of designer jeans, a hotdog, a complete meal at under $10, looks that much more appetizing.

Until next time,
