最老牌的美国热狗是哪一家?

前不久，在热浪席卷这座城市时，我走进像火炉一样的纽约市地铁，逃离曼哈顿，来到康尼岛的海滩享受徐徐海风。布鲁克林海滨游乐园是一个俗气但却适合家庭出游的好地方：木板栈道两旁和金色的沙滩上挤满了游乐设施以及游戏和美食摊位，一个多世纪以来，一直为辛勤工作的纽约人提供节假日休息娱乐的服务。在瑟夫大道（Surf Avenue）和史迪威大道（Stillwell Avenue）相交的拐角处，我看到一群游客正在写着“内森热狗店”（Nathan's Famous）的白色招牌下排队。招牌自豪地宣称“正宗老字号：本店自1916年开始售卖举世闻名的法兰克福香肠。”

Yet, a mere two blocks away, I spotted another sign attached to a small shop directly beside the historic Cyclone rollercoaster that read: 'Feltman's of Coney Island: The original hot dog – 1867'.

然而，就在两个街区之外，我在一家紧邻历史悠久的“飓风”（Cyclone）过山车的小店外面又看到了另一块招牌，上面写着：“康尼岛费尔特曼热狗店：正宗老字号热狗——始于1867年”。

Up to that point, I'd thought that Coney Island hot dogs began and ended with Nathan's, whose name has been synonymous with the seaside theme park for as long as anyone can remember. But while Nathan's boasts that it's 'the original', it turns out that they weren't even the first company on the boardwalk to bun a hot dog. According to Brooklyn native and Coney Island historian Michael Quinn, a German immigrant named Charles L Feltman was serving hot dogs along the bustling strip decades before Nathan's was conceived.
