❓ Question

Fans identify the hot dog stand Kramer visits in "The Movie" as Papaya King, a real NYC chain that sells hot dogs and papaya drinks.

In the episode, "The Movie" the gang is waiting in line to see "Rochelle,Rochelle". At one point Kramer leaves because he needs a hot dog. Can anyone please tell me what the Hot Dog Stand he goes to is called? It's been driving me crazy trying to remember this!!!!!! Thanx Chris W "Music is the Best" --F.Zappa

Which actually does exist in NYC at several Manhattan locations (selling hot dogs and papaya drinks, among other things)...Seinfeld gave it one of his many free on-air plugs for things in New York he just happened to like. Papaya King hots are both very good and very cheap (had a couple last time I was in NYC last fall).
