There are many foods that serve as a blank canvas for chefs and foodies to use as the base to a memorable and creative meal. We see practically everything on top of a pizza and the basic milkshake has turned into a multi-layered experience. It doesn’t get more basic than the hot dog, but at Boonedogs in Lexington, they’ve dressed them up to be even more delicious. If you want to try this tasty trend and indulge in gourmet hot dogs in Kentucky, head to this local restaurant that not only has “dressed up” dogs, but also serves up burgers, fried bologna, salads, and more.

Boonedogs is located on Old Richmond Road in beautiful Lexington. The local restaurant pays homage to its state through its name and also honors the longstanding tradition of great food in the Bluegrass with its tasty creations.
