The Scene – More a kitschy local institution than a traditional eatery, these weenie-shaped hot-dog carts prowl the French Quarter serving up gastrointestinal ballast for inebriated Bourbon Street tourists. During peak party times, every street corner seems to be occupied by a distinctive red and yellow Lucky Dog wagon manned by a somewhat surly sausage technician. – – The Food – When you order a late-night meal from a giant metal frankfurter, there's very little room for mystery or confusion.

Best Dogs Ever!

by southernbelle22 at Citysearch

When you go to downtown New Orleans this is one of those things you just can't leave without trying. These hot dogs are by far the best hot dogs I have ever had and I've tried quite a few in many other places.

  • Pros: inexpensive, tasty, fun

Doesn't take a dunce to know good!

Lucky dog. Lucky dog. Put a hot steamy...

two warm buns...

I miss the way they used hawk their wares. But I have to say the creole sausage is a guilty pleasure.

If you read Confederacy of Dunces, you'll understand why Lucky Dogs are the real New Orleans thing!

  • Pros: delicious, real New Orleans, characters serving u
  • Cons: unnutritious, heartburn city, it's really bad for u
