National Hot Dog Month Celebration 2011: Zippity Do Dog

Zippity Do Dog is a new twist on one of my favorite local hot dog joints. Owner Mike Gerrol changed the name from The Trolley Stop at the beginning of this season to put his own brand on the business. He purchased the business from Diane Dupres of Diezy’s Dogs a couple of years ago. […]
