Although the frankfurter is German and was imported into the U.S. in the 19th century, the hot dog recipe seems to have been created by German Charles Feltman in Brooklyn, New York, in 1876… So is it German or American? That’s the question! Whatever the case, this tasty elongated bun stuffed with a cooked sausage and a variety of condiments continues to make people salivate almost 150 years after its creation. Here are the best hot dogs in Brussels!
Bagel Jackson
Bagel Jackson undoubtedly offers one of the best hot dogs in Brussels. The choice is varied, the service pleasant and fast, and the hot dogs (very copious!) are best enjoyed with a voluptuous milkshake.
