the swiss do hot dogs right

Earlier this week, Jeff and I had a hot dog lunch at the Saanen market. While it may not sound particularly exciting, it did result in a very interesting culinary discovery.  At the sausage stall, you choose your type of grilled hot dog or sausage.  A baguette is cut in half and shoved onto a phallic looking piece of stainless steel that toasts the baguette from the inside!  Your condiment choices, while somewhat limited, are hung from the canopy of the stall and are squeezed (kind of like from an udder) from the Costco-sized bottles into the bottom of the baguette.  Et voila, your hot dog, swiss market style!  The best part - no leaking condiments since they're all contained in the bum of the baguette.  Brilliant + delicious, a winning combination!  The Optimist Club at the Erin Fall Fair, makers of the world's best back-bacon-on-a-bun, could take some cues....
