00:00Take me out for some hot dogs.
00:04Simply having a wonderful Christmas time.
00:09Simply having a wonderful Christmas time.
00:12Yes, the mood is light.
00:14It's time to go
00:16and find a place
00:18to go raw dogging.
00:20Yes, simply having a wonderful Christmas time.
00:23Yes, it's Christmas time again
00:26and I'm coming here to a place that
00:28has a hot dog though.
00:30It's not really known for its hot dogs.
00:32It's known for its classic egg creams
00:34and the old-fashioned soda jerks.
00:38It's been here 100 years
00:40starting in 1925.
00:44It's going to be 100 years old
00:46and every time he comes to New York,
00:48Paul McCartney stops here.
00:50They've shot movies here.
00:52It's an iconic space on the Upper East Side.
00:54It's time to go raw dogging.
00:56We're going to be raw dogging
00:58at the Lexington Candy Shop.
01:00Let's go.
01:26It's time to go raw dogging.
01:56All right.
02:06All right, here we go.
02:08The hot dog
02:10kind of looks like an average dog
02:12if you ask me.
02:14It's grilled.
02:16The bun,
02:18the dog ratio is okay
02:20but the bun feels a little stiff to me.
02:24Let's give this a try.
02:36I would say this is
02:38a pretty average hot dog
02:40but you come here not for the hot dog.
02:42You come here for the ambiance.
02:44Let's give these fries a little try.
02:54I'll give the fries
02:58a solid 7.8.
03:00And then you've got
03:02the old-fashioned,
03:04the way they used to make it,
03:06soda.
03:14You know,
03:16you still need this for lunch.
03:18It's a time machine.
03:20I'm going to give this soda, this Coke,
03:22an 8.8.
03:24And you know,
03:26this holiday season,
03:28I'm not going to forget
03:30my Jewish friends.
03:32One thing that's been
03:34popular in New York
03:36is the egg cream.
03:38Now despite the name egg cream,
03:40there are no eggs nor cream in here.
03:42It's simply milk,
03:44chocolate syrup,
03:46and it's got a seltzer,
03:48like the soda water.
03:50It's a dying breed.
03:52This is a very popular
03:54turn-of-the-century drink, especially among the
03:56Yiddish community in New York.
03:58And it's still popular here
04:00at the Lexington Candy Shop.
04:02And this is the egg cream,
04:04chocolate egg cream.
04:06You can get several types,
04:08but this is the chocolate egg cream.
04:12It tastes like a yuhu,
04:14but much better.
04:16I'm going to give this
04:18I'm going to give this
04:20an 8.9.
04:22I mean,
04:24if you want to go for egg cream,
04:26this is probably the spot to be.
04:28Egg creams are well known as the best.
04:32Yes, another
04:34holiday is upon us.
04:36So, Merry Christmas.
04:40Looking forward to another year of raw dogging.
04:42Happy holidays.
04:44Happy holidays.
04:46And if you know any place I should be in 2025,
04:48let me know.
04:50Email me. DM me.
04:52Text me. Whatever.
04:54Tell me where I should go next.
04:56Yes, I'm not stopping raw dogging.
04:58I'm raw dogging
05:00next year, the year after that,
05:02and the year after that, and far beyond.
05:04So, I'll see you down the road.
05:06Merry Christmas.
05:08And have a happy new year.
05:10As I drove out of sight,
05:12keep raw dogging.
05:14Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
05:18Take me out
05:20for some hot dogs.
05:22Get me one
05:24that's only plain.
05:26No mustard or ketchup.
05:28I'll know what
05:30the dog is really about.
05:32And it's hope that
05:34this is a good one.
05:36Maybe a home run
05:38or a double.
05:40If it sucks, it will be a strike.
05:42Got it not.
05:44Rody of my taste buds.
