Jerry's Dogs - La Habra

What a nice vacation in the Bahamas overall, this is our farewell day of the Bahamas. We flew, we swam, we ate and ate and ate. What else could you ask for? Let's give the Bahamas a farewell!

The Good: Beaches, Restaurants had good food and plentiful portions, weather (we missed any potential tropical storms despite being in the rainy season), fun sights, watersports
The Bad: Prices in general were expensive, 4 dollar a gallon gas, 6 dollar a gallon milk, 5 dollar bottles of juice, 110 dollar water park
The Nitty Gritty: If you are a fan of crystal blue waters and white sand beaches, the Bahamas is for you! Depending on what else is on your list of things to do, you would stay in different areas of the Bahamas.



The day after we arrived home from the Bahamas, my wife and I decided to go out and get some good old American hot dogs. This is one of the only places I would pay more than 5 dollars for a hot dog... a dodger dog or that celeb hang out Pink's just doesn't cut it for me! Jerry's Dogs is a twice a year trip for my wife and I, we drive way out of our way to La Habra for these hot dogs and sausages!

What makes Jerry's Dogs so good? Of course it is their hot dogs and sausages! Here they wood fire grill your meat to perfection and then after that, it is all up to you to request whatever you want from their large list of "toppings".


This is their Bavarian bratwurst topped with grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, grilled peppers, Chipotle Mayo sauce, 2 pickle spears in a lightly toasted bun. I am jonesing to go again just writing about it!



This is my wife's spicy hot link with grilled sport peppers, onions, lettuce, grilled onions, jalepenos and bacon bits on a lightly toasted bun. yummy!

What else do they have there? They do have other things on their menu, including side dishes.


Their home made potato chips - very crispy deep fried goodness with skin attached

Our lunch for 2 set us back a mere 13 dollars, granted we did not buy drinks and just had the free water. Also freely available, is peanuts! A couple large TV's and this place could be a very busy sports bar.

The Good: Wood fired hot dog and sausages, every visit is different with your own customizations to the toppings, deep fried side dishes are fresh
The Bad: none really; but could make a case for only one small co-ed bathroom, and not enough seating given the crowds that usually here
Overall: As my gushing review dictates, Jerry's Dogs is the pinnacle of hot dog goodness, everyone should stop by for a try (although I believe there is no vegetarian fare here).
Give it 5 out of 5 stars because it is the best place of its kind I have ever been to.
