About:Sometimes you want a Louisiana link that sends your tongue on a one-way trip to New Orleans, a decent kosher frank. That is what the owner wanted when he opened up this small stand: a taste of New York's famous ethnic sausages from its German, Italian and Polish neighborhoods. And they ship bulk orders around the world, too! Not surprisingly, this joint is a hit with local students grabbing a quick bite between classes or a satisfying break during a late-night study session. Place your order at the front and hang out while waiting for your link. Lemon Chicken, Kielbasa and the turkey "Bird Dog" are among the several appetizing selections.

    I think that this place is great. I used to drive from walnut creek for a dog or two, or when I was in berkeley, however, I first went there in 1998, and couldn't get enough. THe staff is cool, but the price for one dog is steep in my opinion. 3.00 ? I rather buy a pack of the Saags hot links and grill them at home for cheaper. I suggest the hot link and the top garlic, and bratwurst. My friends and I don't eat there as much cause of the prices nowadays, but always a treat. Hot dogs shouldn't have to be this expensive.

    Back when the prices were $2.50/dog it may have been a fun place to be, but now you're paying $3.00 for a small, poor quality supermarket hot dog. Sure, there's the nostalgic appeal, but as far as value goes, there are simply better ways to spend your money.
