Daniel Moves to NYC and Immediately Starts Eating Fancy Hot Dogs

Daniel's first dogs in his new New York City apartment were classic ketchup-and-mustard affairs shot against a rainy Manhattan skyline — but within 24 hours, he was already getting experimental. On October 5th he unveiled a veggie dog topped with tofu scallion cream cheese from the legendary Zabar's deli, followed immediately by a second one because "it was fire." Then came a pan-fried bun slathered in toum with baba ganoush, which his wife declined to kiss him after eating.

By October 6th he was grilling on a fresh-baked Zabar's bun and lamenting that the sausage inside was too small for it. The whole week was a masterclass in New York hot dog creativity — complete with a baseball game streaming in the background, a cat photobombing, and the running joke that he lives 0.3 miles from Gray's Papaya, widely considered the best hot dog in the world, and can't even eat it because he's vegetarian.
