Walter's Hot Dog Stand is an American eatery on Palmer Avenue in Mamaroneck, New York. Walter's signature hot dogs blend beef, pork and veal: each split lengthwise, grilled in a secret house sauce, and served on a toasted bun with housemade mustard. The stand's Asian-inspired building — its oxidized-copper pagoda roof and dragon lanterns — gives the roadside eatery its unmistakable silhouette. - AsNotedIn
