The most common question posed by a visitor on arrival in Reykjavik, capital of the so-called Land of Fire and Ice, tends to be where are the nearest hot springs rather than where is the closest hot dog stand.
But it's an answer to the latter that I'm most keen to hear on arriving at my hotel in Iceland after a day and a half's worth of flying.
In a nation with a cuisine that includes rather less accessible delicacies such as fermented shark, blood sausage and - oh boy - foal meat, hot dogs, you see, are a curious feature of the Icelandic diet, a national institution in fact.

I love vidalia onions. Like white onions but just slightly sweet.

My only question about the Icelandic dogs is “how do they compare to Nathan’s?”

While I may be in GA, truth be told, I like sauerkraut and mustard on my brats. Speaking of which, Costco had some great Costco (Kirkland?) branded brats in the fresh meat section recently.
Back to Vidalias, I’ve made some great French onion soup with them. May have to score a bag and make some Sunday.

In fact, it's appetising enough for me to down a second (don't hold the ketchup). stopped right there--- cat sup on a hot dog? A cardinal sin. You will go to hell for such.
