"Jack’s Hot Dog Stand started in 1917 as a nickel-a-dog operation serving hungry mill workers on their way home. The lunch counter has dished out burgers, hot dogs, and hand-cut fries in its tiny space in downtown North Adams ever since. Servers whirl about behind the counter as they steam, fry, assemble, and wrap your food in front of you with well-practiced movements passed down through decades of operation. Jack’s feels like a monument to a bygone era, a place unstuck from time. Inflation, however, has not forgotten about this little hot dog stand, and you can no longer buy a hot dog for a nickel – unfortunately, you now have to pay around $2." - Emma Van Slyck
