Since the hotdog cart closed two years ago on Central Street, we have been dog deficient in DTL. No longer. Hip, gourmet frank shack Bad Dawgs is opening in the former site of Mossie's on Merrimack Street. What a nice turn-of-events. This franchise founded by a Northeastern grad, is infiltrating college towns in NE. There's one in Plymouth and Keene, N.H. The Web site says UMass Lowell is next, but it appears downtown won out. Looks like it's truly a dog-only shop w/ umpteen toppings. They've got sauerkraut, blue cheese, chopped celery and hot sauce. Don't know yet when this dog rolls out, but we can only hope by spring. Anyone dug the dawg?
