Spike’s Junkyard Dog
When I arrived in Boston I had a day or two to wonder around town before I started work, so I took the Red Line up into town and just started wondering. Via the wonders of Facebook and Twitter updates, I got the message to go to Spike’s Junkyard Dog and get a Junkyard Dog. Since I was on my way to Fenway, there happen to be a Spike’s on the walk there. Spike’s is a Burger and Hot Dog place with a junkyard theme, so car parts and crash signs are on the walls. The menu is pretty standard with various options of burgers, hot dogs, and chicken. I prefer my dogs plain, so I got a hot dog and a fried buffalo chicken sandwich. Hot dogs are one of those basic foods that when done right can be amazingly good, and Spike’s didn’t disappoint. The chicken sandwich was pretty good as well, but I am not a fan of chicken stripes used as sandwich inners, but it was alright. There are multiple Spike’s in the Boston area, and well worth grabbing a bite there if you have the sudden urge for a good hot dog.
