So it has becomes tradition for me to stop for these little treasures whenever I am in Rocky Point. They will leave you speechless.
Perrones can only be found after about 6pm. They caters to tourists but has found a following with the natives. Perrones is located in the parking lot and right next to traffic lights, if you aren't watching out, you will miss them. They have their hot dog cart and a grill, they have seating which is a long table with chairs and its very clean.
The cart is run by a couple of guys who take pride in making these hot dogs. Everything is cooked right there in front of you and what makes these hot dogs different is that though most vendors use Bimbo bread, Perrones have a bakery make theirs and it is AMAZING!!! So light and fluffy and moist and just so good!
The hot dogs are wrapped in bacon and then grilled. You have a choice of toppings but I always just ask for the works, which consists of mustard mayo (and more mayo) ketchup, grilled onions and salsa, pico de gallo.....they have it all and again they are short of amazing.
I took prince charming there when we went alone last year and I am not saying he is hard to please (but he is not easily impressed) and well HE WAS....you know that roll your eyes kind of good, well this little vendor and their hot dogs do just that!
This time around we took the kids with us and they were also impressed. Vivi went traditional and had plain with mustard...Noah nibbled as well and Luis and Louie went for the works as well as adding a salsa with cucumber in it...So yummy!
We all had a drink, Coca Cola in the traditional bottle and it hit the spot.
We averaged out how much one of these hot dogs are in American $$ and it about 1.40 a piece.....each of us had two, so you know the price is right and well anytime you can find a spot that isn't the same predictable stuff, it's a good thing.
Again if you find yourself out in Puerto Penasco (proper) and its after 6pm...YOU MUST give these guys a try. :) A little piece of food heaven awaits.
