Heid's of Liverpool
A Liverpool hot dog house running since 1917, marked by the giant rooftop sign on Oswego Street. This is CNY's iconic list calls it a local institution, and Roadfood documents its Texas Hot coney with chili sauce, mustard and chopped onions, made with Hofmann franks grilled to order while you watch. Get a white coney or a red frank with spicy brown mustard, and a chocolate milk on the side.
Twin Trees Restaurant · West side / Avery Ave
Twin Trees on Avery Ave keeps a classic Central New York coney counter, griddling red German-style franks and white pork-and-veal coneys on the flattop in soft buns. This is CNY's iconic-restaurants list names it among places every Central New Yorker should try; the Avery Ave original is a single family-run business, separate from the other Twin Trees rooms run by different Rescignano relatives. It is also known locally for Syracuse-style pizza. Order a red frank or a white coney off the flattop.
