Feel free to contact me if you have primary documents, ephemera or first-hand accounts of Jackson Square retail, apartment dwelling or other commercial aspects pre 1950s. I am beginning research on the commercial history of Jackson Square since the addition of the Pontalba Bldgs. So don’t be a snob- go get a dog done right. So the 8 bucks spent there feeds tummies well, the lovely inside feeds the eye and ears (music is local and lively) and the caring and onsite owners with their homemade ingredients feed the New Orleans soul. I ain’t no slip of a girl that gets filled up from a latte I eat food like my Polish and Greek and Cajun peops did before me and even I cannot always finish my Genchili in one setting. What works against these guys is that people think of the hot dog as the crappy thing you see in the roller at the gas station or the burnt thing to the side of the grill at your neighborhood bbq, but these are made as meals and should be treated that way. The Genchili comes with their own “creole mix” and homemade chili which add just enough spice and residual flavor to make you want to slow down after each bite to savor. I almost always get a Genchili dog (which I think should be called a Gentill圜hili) with polish sausage and then only add mustard and ketchup (you get your choice of type of dog and added condiments) as needed. The owners of Dreamie Weenies are cool guys who take the dog and its surrounding environment seriously. That’s when I head to North Rampart to get a hot dog at the place next door to Mary’s Hardware’s new location between Orleans and Saint Ann. You’ll find me in line at Johnny’s and at Central Grocery often, patiently waiting behind visitors who are nervously practicing saying muffaletta or ordering it dressed without feeling foolish.īut every once in a while, you just want a quick American treat done in a New Orleans way. Listen, I like poor boys and muffalettas.
