Hotdogs generally have not been included in my regular diet for a few years as I moved away from processed foods, but an errand one of the last days I was in West Virginia took me right past an icon of the region, Hillbilly Hot Dogs. 
Presented on national television by Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Guy Fieri enjoyed the fried dogs with a multitude of toppings. http://www.foodnetwork.com/videos/homewrecker-hot-dog/35982.html
Hillbilly Hot Dog’s restaurant is over the top in terms of decor, poking fun with a high level of mirth and sarcasm at the way the outside world views the people in this region. 
West Virginia Hot dog and cheese fries
While you could eat at the in-town Huntington version of the restaurant to enjoy all the flavors offered at the Lesage place, if you have the time, drive out to the first place. It only takes about 20 minutes from downtown Huntington and your enjoyment will extend from your taste buds to your funny bone.
