A visit to New York is not complete without a stop at Coney Island. The original "home" of the hot dog (seemingly debatable to each and every other city), Nathan's Famous has been in operation since 1916. This is the neon marquee at the original counter, and no visit to Coney would be complete without "snapping" into the "best hot dog in the world."
