    Matt. Thanks for the shout-out. Glad you enjoyed it. Another Hudson County gem, Dos Amigos in West New York. Bergenline/53rd. Known for Cuban/Latino steak sandwiches. Nothing else. Just Latino flavored steak sandwiches that have onions and fries embedded. Story goes, the owners won the lottery and their dream was to open up this joint. For drinks, they serve Latino fruit smoothies.
    Good job on the videos.

    Those hotdogs are like Papaya Dog and Papaya King in NYC. I used to get them with mustard, onions and sauerkraut. Always with a papaya drink.
    That owner got that sense of humor like a piece of overdone toast. DRY.

      Glizzie : A Glock, not a hot dog. But I'm older. At least he didn't say, "Look away." They're just hot dogs, not homo-erotic metaphors. Hmm, what do you put on a metaphor?

      That hotdog was bangin like a GAT (gatling gun). :-) I had to throw my simile in there. I think that was a simile. LOL I appreciate you, thanks. @@argonwheatbelly637
