| THE DOG HOUSE drive-in in
Albuquerque, New Mexico serves an outrageous Foot-Long Chile Dog. |
 |
| |
| The
building is a 1950s era fast-food joint with car-hop parking in front of (the)
glass windows of the kitchen. ► |
| |
| On route 66, on the western edge of Albuquerque, on Central Avenue,
across from and down the road a piece from Old Town, the DOG HOUSE has been
serving their Foot-Long dogs since the Nineteen-Fifties. A carhop will
bring your order to the car or you can dine inside.

The "dog" is grilled on a huge stovetop - where the chili (a
red/brown/maroon - Chili Powder hot - Southwestern-style) is simmering in a
large pot. The sliced dog nests in a foot long bun with chopped
onions, cheese and of course the chili sauce which has a slight taste of
cinnamon. The whole thing is wrapped in yellow paper; there is
no other way to eat these Foot-Long Dogs. |

| The building has a small counter with
a half-dozen stools facing the open kitchen where the barkers are built.
Several booths line the walls behind the counter. |

|
| If you are anywhere near
Albuquerque, stop in and have a couple of dogs. |
