Last night, a few of us went to a diner in Manchester called Dogs N Dough. I had never heard of it before (it was our friend's suggestion) but went online to check out the menu and was immediately excited!
The premise, for those that are familiar, is similar to Almost Famous, a burger bar in the Northern Quarter that does huge, stacked burgers with everything from candied bacon, to doughnuts to steak in them - and are hugely calorific! The difference with Dogs N Dough is that, as the name suggests, it is hotdogs and pizza which they specialise in - and considering I am not a huge burger fan, this seemed like my ideal replacement.
I decided to go for pizza, whilst everyone else in the group opted for a hotdog. Mine had macaroni cheese and bacon on the top, carb overload! I managed 5 out of 8 slices which I was pretty happy with, and the boys were willing to finish it off! Other things ordered were the 'Philly Cheese Steak' which was topped with steak, shallots, barbecue sauce, peppers and cheese, the 'New Yorker' with pastrami, swiss cheese, jalapenos and horseradish mayo and the 'Burrito Dog' topped with salsa, guacamole, chilli, peppers and cheese, and we also got a few portions of fries, some loaded with chilli and cheese. The boys were on pitchers of Budweiser which worked out as a good deal, and I shared a bottle of wine with one of the other girls, as one of our party was a designated driver.
