We were influenced by the tug of the moon and the planets that aligned in our galaxy because I felt that tug in my guts that guided me to Dickie Dees in Newark, NJ for their version of the Italian Style Hotdog sandwich. Rick, the owner for the last 27 years, invited me into the kitchen where he had just finished another full tray of their famous fried potatoes. Steph and Idit joined me for their first experience with these monster sandwiches and they finished the damn things, which scared me.
