Senate on Food & Wine list of 'America's Best Hot Dogs'

The national love just keeps coming for Over-the-Rhine restaurant Senate.

Food & Wine magazine recently included the eatery in its list of "America's Best Hot Dogs."

Writer Pervaiz Shallwani said of Senate, "Chef Daniel Wright has received national accolades for his playful takes on pub food, including a regularly changing menu of hot dogs like the Croque Madame (Black Forest ham, poached egg, béchamel) and the Lindsay Lohan (goat cheese, caramelized onions, bacon, arugula and balsamic vinegar)."

Senate's Croque Madame hot dog also has recently been singled out for extra kudos. In May, The Daily Meal featured it in its list of "America's 50 Best Hot Dogs," along with Blue Ash Chili's coney.

Wright earlier this month published a cookbook, "Senate: Street & Savory," that shares recipes for many of the restaurant's most popular hot dogs and other menu items. The book is available at Joseph-Beth Booksellers, where there will be a book signing on 7 p.m. on June 23.
