Experience: This was my second visit to the Leesburg Corner Premium Outlets Food Court. Nathan's Famous is, well, famous as far as hot dogs go. As the wikipedia article explains, it was established in 1916 and "the original Nathan's restaurant stands at the corner of Surf and Stillwell Avenues in the Coney Island neighborhood of the New York City borough of Brooklyn." They now have locations all over the U.S. and in about seventeen foreign countries. The other thing they're famous for is the annual Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, held every year on the 4th of July at their original location. As noted in my previous article on Arthur Treacher's, Nathan's owns Arthur Treacher's and Kenny Rogers Roasters, which adjoin Nathan's at the Food Court.
On this visit, I got a Chili Cheese Dog, Medium Cheese Fries, and a fountain drink. It was all good and cheesy, but it didn't seem much different than any other hot dog. On the other hand, it's one of the few places in Leesburg you can get a decent chili cheese dog!

Great website!
If you want a good Dog try Windy City Red Hots. They are just an old trailer parked at the Blue Mount Nursery, but the food is really good. Not to mention, the only place I know where you can get authentic Chicago hot dogs.
