Vonyetta’s Favorite Things: Charlotte’s Newest Eatery That Is A Gourmet Slice Of Hotdog Heaven
If you follow RHOA, the father of Portia’s daughter Dennis, is the owner of a gourmet hot dog eatery called The Hot Dog Factory. Well, thanks to an amazing family, now Charlotte has a slice of this hot dog heaven.
I had a chance to chat with the owners of the Hot Dog Factory. I spoke to the Hailey family and let me tell you. Close nit is an understatement. With any business there are challenges, but when you add working with family in the mix, I’m sure the challenges are greater. Co-owner Anthony Hailey told me working together is necessary to overcome any challenges.
I saw that first hand when I visited the Hot Dog Factory. I met so many welcoming members of the family, I felt apart myself. Mr. Anthony Sr. told me when his son, Anthony Jr., came to him about buying into the franchise he had to see what the hot dog hype was all about. After a business trip to Atlanta that also involved tasting and viewing the structure of the restaurant, he knew this was just what Charlotte needed. I must say, he was absolutely right.
The menu is vast, yet net. There are options for everyone including vegan options. I was super excited to see that. I’m not 100% vegan, but I love to try vegan alternatives when I can. I ordered the Hawaiian dog with sweet potato fries and oh my goodness was it delicious.
