BEST Venezuelan hotdogs in Orlando!!
I first discovered El Perrero as a pop-up at Boxi Park in Lake Nona. Their menu is honestly perfect. I absolutely love it when businesses put a picture of the menu item in addition to a description, so this was already an A+ in my books.
I truly feel like you can't go wrong with any of them.
My boyfriend and I's favorite is the Reuben Bacon, which has cheese, sauerkraut, bacon bites, potato sticks, homemade mayo and thousand island sauce.
Another favorite is the Surfista Surfer, which has onions, cabbage, house mayo, pineapple sauce and bacon bites.
Like I mentioned though, each menu item is so fun and unique, and some of them have names that correlate to Venezuela, which brings so much culture to Orlando.
Although their hotdogs are amazing, there are two key components that keep me revisiting this business.
1) I went another time to their location near Hunters Creek, and it was POURING RAIN!!! The gentleman running the cart, regardless of the nasty day outside, was so sweet and walked us through all the options. All of the staff are so kind.
2) When the devastating earthquake happened in Venezuela, El Perrero did specials that donated proceeds directly to Venezuela. This especially hit home because many of my friends and family are from Venezuela, so this was extremely important to me. I absolutely love businesses that are eager to share their culture, include others, and give back.
El Perrero is definitely one of my favorite businesses in Orlando, and one that deserves all the love and support! read more
