First off: they have vegan options! I talked to the staff. The plant based sausage is vegan and…read moremany of the corn dog flavors are also vegan. Exceptions would be the Flaming Hot Cheetos dog and the spaghetti one. The cereal one might be non-vegan too. You can check their website's allergen list/nutrition facts to make sure. The staff is really kind here. I started off simple with the classic Kong dog and fries. My husband got the vegetable dumplings* which come deep fried by default. I wouldn't recommend the dumplings as they had no flavor. However, there was this great habanero sauce that seemed like it was made in house. We greatly enjoyed that. The corn dog (Kong dog?) was pretty good, but it was kind of missing that strong corn flavor that most corn dogs have. I'll endeavor to try the crunchy ramen one and some different sauces. I'd like to try the tteokbokki, but I'm unsure if the gochujang base contains any fish stock. It automatically comes with fish cakes. I will ask next time I go and update the review. I would definitely say this spot has the flashiest facade out of all of the dining options in the "dining pavilion". The ambiance is that of your typical mall food court. *the veg dumplings are probably just vegetarian, not vegan, but you can always ask!

This place was inside the mall. I found the idea of a type of corn dog with toppings cool and a…read moremust-try for me. I think anything on a stick is good. I got the first combo. You pick your toppings. I picked potatoes. You pick your inside. I got half cheese and half hot dog. It was good. I liked it. The mango lemonade was one of the most refreshing lemonades I have tasted. It wasn't overly sweet. It was just right. One of the friendliest staff members. She took her time to give me recommendations and explained the different variations.

We took the very long ride out to Karl's Sausage Kitchen because our local source of Swedish…read moresausage closed recently. : ( The store was easy to find and a short distance off the highway. It's not a large store, but they have a wide variety of imported Scandinavian food, some local baked goods and a variety of meat that's packaged to order. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to go so close to Christmas on the weekend? I'm not sure if it's always that busy or not, but the parking lot was full and there was a lot of people in the store. We picked a few treats to try and got a frozen package of their Swedish meat sausage (I didn't see the potato sausage). We also decided to try their bratwurst and ordered some of that at the meat counter. We enjoyed our purchases, we loved the bratwurst and the Swedish meat sausage was good, but we definitely would have preferred the potato sausage that I grew up eating. I'm not sure when we'll make it back because it was a really long ride just for that, but I would definitely recommend it and I'd shop there regularly if I lived closer.

They are still a European grocery store where you can buy imported food, and they have a deli counter where you can get all different types of sausages- You just have to take it home and cook it yourself. We got the weisswurst and the knockwurst and cooked them in a homemade beer sauce. they were delicious. It is a little pricey for how much sausage you get, but it is imported so that's understandable. We also got the frozen schnitzel, which was also really good. We put it in the air fryer and it made for a quick weekday lunch. The service was pretty good- staff seemed friendly and knowledgeable. I don't think I would go out of my way to come here, but if i'm in the area sometime I'd love to stop by again.

After an exhausting late-night summoning ritual, I needed a strong drink, a bite to eat, and a spot…read moreto decompress before heading back into the void. All Souls Lounge in Salem was the perfect sanctuary. It's a small, intimate spot that fills up fast, if you don't get there early, you'll be left haunting the sidewalk waiting for a table. Luckily, they offer outdoor seating, which was great for cooling off after spending two hours surrounded by ceremonial candles. The service was remarkably fast for a packed house. The cocktails were delicious and flavorful, though if you're looking to banish your inner demons in one sip, note that they aren't the absolute strongest in town. What really stole the show, however, was the food menu: they have a massive selection of gourmet grilled cheeses and hot dogs. Speaking of which: after finishing my meal, I went home inspired to attempt another quick ritual. I was trying to summon an ancient Hot Dog Spirit to bless my midnight snack cravings, but I mangled the Latin incantation and accidentally conjured a Grilled Cheese Ghost instead. Now my apartment smells like toasted sourdough, and there is a glowing ectoplasmic slice of melted cheddar hovering over my couch. Overall, a fantastic spot to refuel whether you're a local, a tourist, or just an exhausted practitioner of the dark arts. Highly recommend!

Over the next 20 minutes (without service or even a "come to the bar to order even though you're sitting at a table") we watched as three more couples walked in, met by the bartender (who passed by us to accomplish ) brought to a table, and then served. When the second bartender came out from around the bar, we perked up, only to find them addressing yet another couple that arrived after us. We got zero drinks, we got zero acknowledgment. For a bar that says "all souls welcome", we certainly did not feel it.

Stopped into the Chicken & The Pig for a late lunch on a Friday afternoon. They were plenty busy…read moreand almost all of the seating was full. I ordered at the counter and took the 2 top high table right by the window. I ordered the House Dog and a side of waffle fries that came with their house made honey ketchup. The food was ready pretty quickly and it looked really good as I brought it back to my table. The House dog is listed as being topped with chopped bacon, grilled onions and their spicy pub style mustard. Overall it was really good. The onions weren't as cooked as much as I would have liked them to be and some of the onion pieces were pretty big. I thought the mustard was great and really wanted more of that on the dog. I know it looks like plenty in the picture but I still wanted more. The bun was that perfect split top New England bun that was perfectly toasted on both sides. The fries were good. Well-seasoned. I couldn't tell that anything was different about the ketchup. I did want more than what was given in the little portioned cup that they provided. I'd return to Chicken & The Pig and I'd definitely try other hot dog variations and definitely get one of the chicken sandwiches.
