Hot Dog! Krog Dogs Coming to Inman Park

Hot Dog shop coming to Beltine neighborhood.

A new hot dog shop called "Krog Dogs" plans to open May 7th at 10 Krog Street near the Krog Street tunnel and close to Krog Street Market and the Atlanta Beltline.  

Krog Dogs describes itself as "A classic hot dog stand serving the most delicious dogs."

Hot dogs are a popular food trend with fast food burger chain Burger King launching grilled dogs last month and finding the menu item extremely popular.  “There has been an overwhelming response,” CEO Dan Accordino said of the grilled hot dogs.  

Near where Krog Dogs plans to open, Chef Kevin Ouzts  of The Spotted Trotter and The Cockentrice opened Frankly Hot Dogs in Krog Street Market this past October. 

Despite the failure of Richard Blais's HD1 gourmet hot dog concept in Poncey Highland, I think Krog Dogs could be quite successful.  

Streatery, a hot dog-centric food truck launched in 2010, operates two locations downtown: one near Peachtree Center, the other near The Georgia Aquarium.
