8 Best Hot Dog Spots in Durham, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas
"With two locations, in North and South Durham, chances are anytime you’re craving a hot dog, you’re not too far from a Jimmy’s. Have your hot dog with ketchup and mustard for $2.09 or go “all the way,” piling on chili, slaw, onions, and mustard for $2.59. Plus, you have your pick of beef, turkey, or pork. Jimmy’s nails the classic hot dog. The dog is expertly grilled, and the bun is toasted. As a bonus, classic toppings like coleslaw and pickled jalapenos are free. And, if you’re not in the mood for a sausage, don’t sleep on Jimmy’s fried catfish with an extra crispy coating or the homemade banana pudding loaded with fresh bananas and vanilla wafers. The space itself feels like a time capsule. Black-and-white photos of Durham streets and sports stars adorn the walls, lending the place a nostalgic energy that feels older than it is, like a local institution that has been open for years, perhaps even decades." - Gabi Mendick
