Kings Cross Retail Catering - Coffee Dogs

There's a well known saying in menu planning, 'keep dogs off the menu'! It's a term used in 'menu-engineering' relating to selling and positioning popular and financially attractive menu items and removing the opposite. A different kind of dog here though - the hot dog craze just keeps gathering pace and Coffee Dogs at Kings Cross Station will be one to watch. Frozen custard too!
