Dogs come out at night

It’s 3 a.m., you’ve been singing karaoke and swigging beers for hours, and now you need meat, preferably a New York-style hot dog with all the trimmings. There’s only one problem: You’re nowhere near New York. Well, drunken munchers, Guinea Pigs has heard your stomach groans. The new deluxe hot-dog cart had its grand opening last weekend and will set up shop outside Dino’s Lounge (1516 Las Vegas Blvd. S.) every Thursday, Friday and Saturday to feed the drunk and hungry into the wee hours of the morning.

Guinea Pigs Street Meat

Don’t let the name worry you. Run by former Diego executive chef Christopher Palmeri and two friends, Guinea Pigs isn’t hawking mystery meat. The cart/tent/impromptu street party stocks New York favorite Sabrett hot dogs—available in regular or foot-long sizes and Guinea Pig-style, topped with cheese and bacon, for $2.50 to $4.50. Cheap, quick and tasty: We’re in love.

What a great little spot! I stopped in there last night and had a couple dogs and one heck of a good time. Best "Street Meat" in Vegas!

ABSOLUTELY THE MOST AMAZING DOGS YOU WILL GET IN VEGAS!! I'm partial to getting a polish with chili, cheese, and bacon. I highly recommend visiting Guinea Pigs. You won't be sorry!! OH, and now they have nachos that are to die for!!!
