Althought the Dodger Dogs have a much catchier name and more fabled history; I find them too big & unwieldy. The (Wienerschnitzel) Angels dogs are perfect hot dog size. The rest of the stadium food is ANGELS ALL THE WAY. In addition to regular ball park fare (pizza, ice cream etc...)You can get chinese (teriyaki bowls, vegetables at a ball game!!!!) and now Mexican (thanks to new owner Arte Moreno) & though it's not Lutece; the sit down restaurant is really nice if you have the time. Wed Aug 18 16:46:02 -0700 2004 0 Zanzibar 1 332704 Last time I checked, teriyaki bowls were Japanese. Wed Aug 18 16:48:41 -0700 2004 332703 0 Eric 1 332705 dodger dogs are a must for visiting folks. But I also admit that the other food options are limited and boring. Angels stadium and disney did it right. Wed Aug 18 16:59:13 -0700 2004 332703 0 paparrazifoe 1 332706 As a vegetarian, they both pretty much stink, but the Dodgers take it because of the garlic fries...gotta have em. Wed Aug 18 17:33:57 -0700 2004 332703 0 snackish 1 332712 Gotta have a grilled Dodger Dog during a game! Angels take it on other food options I guess.... But where would you rather watch a game....c'mon Dodger Stadium is the best! Wed Aug 18 18:26:52 -0700 2004 332703 0 slowrider 1 332723 But they don't have chocolate malts at Angel Stadium do they? That being said, I guess I am just a sucker for Dodger Stadium. Although, someone told me there is some kind of deli type place at Dodger Stadium where you can get other than the DD and standard junk food (i.e. Subway, Pizza, nachos). Does anyone know about that and where it is? Der Wienerschnitzel dogs -- PUHLEEZE! I was just at Petco Park and all my friends complained about the fact that their dogs were from DW and were still overpriced $6.50 for the big size, $5 for kosher beef. When it comes to stadium food, the old Qualcomm/Murphy Field in San Diego was the best -- Petco pales in comparison. They were actually selling a chocolate cup filled with strawberries and cream (the size of a cupcake) for $10!!!! But I digress... Wed Aug 18 20:29:46 -0700 2004 332703 0 ChefLisa 2 332743 What's the deal with the malts. Don't get me wrong, I like the chocolate but why don't they ever sell vanilla malts? Thu Aug 19 01:57:39 -0700 2004 332723 0 Andrew 3 332785 I saw a vendor hawking what appeared to be chocolate malts (it was chocolate, and it was in the same sort of cup container) last Thursday at the Angels v. Orioles game. Thu Aug 19 13:37:28 -0700 2004 332743 0 Jack Flash 4 332852 The Angels do serve chocolate malts. Heritage brand. Good, but i like Carnation malts better. Thu Aug 19 20:42:02 -0700 2004 332785 0 HBChow 1 332795 I can't belive ya'all are arguing over Dodger Dogs vs. DW. They are both underwhelming at best. Certainly the flacid weenies that are Dodger Dogs have denied LA a hot dog heritage as Angelenos think that's what a hot dog is supposed to taste like. And DW? Passable if you're hungry but certainly not worth searching out. Your standards are way low if both those pass as appropriate baseball stadium hot dogs to you. Thu Aug 19 15:10:44 -0700 2004 332703 0 Pate' 2 332799 I think it's just that the DW dogs served at Angel Stadium are the lesser of two evils. Dodger Dogs are truly horrid. They are limp, have no snap whatsoever, and taste like smoked cardboard. I don't see how anyone who actually likes hot dogs could like a Dodger Dog (except as some sort of ballpark tradition or something, but certainly not because of the dog itself). That said, there is a stand at Dodger Stadium on the Reserved level that serves hot dogs in either NY style (w/saurkraut), Chicago style (with all appropriate Chi-town toppings, right down to the dyed green relish), or (I believe) a Texas chili dog. They use some sort of all-beef dog, which isn't great (no snap, really), but certainly beats the DD itself. Thu Aug 19 15:29:27 -0700 2004 332795 0 Jack Flash 3 332810 Make sure you are getting the GRILLED DD's and not regular DD's because the grilled ones do have some snap to 'em. I agree that the steamed ones are not all that great, but sometimes neither are the Dodgers but we are still fans, right? heh heh...
