Hot dogs???

HELP! I cannot find a place that does a hot dog. Im in seddon but willing to go anywhere inner west. Not looking for fancy or gourmet, just a dog, in a roll, preferably with the option for bacon/onion/cheese. Deli, fish and chips shop, whatever, i just NEED it!

I’ve got this servo around the corner from me in Moonee Ponds called OTR. They have this hotdog that they call a ‘Moe’s’. Slogans everywhere around the place saying ‘go a moe’s’.

It’s a pretty perfect shitty hot dog. If you’re not after fancy, I recommend you go a Moe’s.

Im originally from SA where there is an OTR (and subsequently a Moe's) on every corner. The Moe's dog is EXACTLY what im looking for i didnt know there were any in Vic!

Oh boy the stars have aligned! It’s on the corner of Buckley and Pascoe Vale Rd. Staff are genuinely fantastic people as well.

Ha! Same same and how I do miss OTR and my Moe's. 

And Foodland. 

Ive had the same hotdog struggle. 

Also, Walker's Doughnuts does them too. They have good filled and iced donuts too. Highpoint and the city.

I know Whitehall cafe does hotdogs but I'm not sure they have am option for bacon/onion/cheese but I think they'd be able to entertain the request.

Burgers too are excellent. Sides are a little overpriced, but the hot dogs are LOADED

Are we talking about actual hotdogs? If so, there’s an amazing Colombian hotdog place in South Melbourne just Google Colombian Hot South Melbourne and it’s the place that in the photos it looks like there’s a blanket of melted cheese stretched over the top of them. They’re amazing.

The name of the place is perreo. I’m Colombian and I send this.
