Weinerschnitzel

108: Weinerschnitzel Day!

We don't eat a lot of junk food, but we've had some friends visiting us, so I've been eating my share of junk food that they enjoy. One of my friends really adores hot dogs, so we decided to head to Weinerschnitzel (at the intersection of 4th and Taylor, San Jose) for a hot dog fix after a morning spent playing at the pool.

Much to my friend's horror, I have never been to Wienerschnitzel before, even though we live so close to one. Of course, they were stunned and amazed by all the wonderful beautiful options at the store and ended up trying a lot of items. Together they managed to eat:
  • Two original mustard dogs
  • Italian sausage (bottom right)
  • Chicago dog (top right)
  • Pastrami dog (bottom left)
  • One order jalapeno poppers
  • One order mini corn dogs
  • Small fries
They're both pretty amazingly thin for the amount of food they can pack away. They both proclaimed Weinerschnitzel their new favourite place, and lamented the fact that there are none located near them. In fact, if you go to the Locations Page, they don't even bother including the east coast on the map. What's pretty interesting is that there are none in Boston (where my friends are from), but they have a franchise location in Guam (of all places!). Hmm... I guess they could always take a vacation to Guam and have Weinerschnitzel there if they really wanted to.

I ate a pastrami sandwich, which was pretty good, but the meat was super fatty, which isn't so wonderful. It also wasn't so photogenic, which explains why there are no photos of it.
