A red and yellow circus tent, a food truck, tables full of people who all seem to be having a great time, and the nicest staff who mostly do not speak English,  serving up a Sonoran hot dog experience. The bacon wrapped turkey dog comes with, ready? Mayo, ketchup, mustard, grilled onion, beans, tomato, guac, jalapeño hot sauce, and cotija cheese. And there is an open ice chest beckoning with extra fixin’s. The tent was packed and a line of pickup trucks were waiting for takeout. I think I found a tiny piece of happening Phoenix.
