hot dogs & cholado
My favorite hot dogs are from La Perrada de Chalo (83-12 Northern Blvd) in Jackson Heights, Queens. I was visiting NY this month so I finally got to go again & I took some pictures.
the Hot Dogs:
on the left: Perro Criollo (cole slaw, pineapple, sauces, cheese & crushed chips) on right is Perro Mixto (bacon, apineapple, sauces, crushed chips). I am sure there was a hot dog in there.
and we went next door to El Palacio de Cholados(83-18 Northern Blvd) and picked up these two cholados.
This was my first time trying a cholado- it was great. It's a Columbian drink and it consists of a bunch of fruits- banana, strawberry, melon, shaved ice and a fruit syrup on the bottom (which my mother says was passion fruit), with sweetened condensed milk poured on top. You get both a spoon and a straw when you get one. It was great.
