Nathan’s Famous, Inc., which is an American fast-food chain that has been serving up New York favorites for over a century, has announced a new development project in Saudi Arabia. Nathan’s Famous is set to open 7 kiosks across the kingdom to serve their infamous hotdogs and fries, with the intent to open 3 more in the coming weeks.
James Walker, senior vice president of the restaurants state, “Nathan’s Famous is known all over the world, which is why we’ve had success in recent years growing across the globe. We have seen success with our offerings in the Middle East, and we are looking forward to introducing our food to new consumers in Saudi Arabia.”
Nathan’s Famous will be available at key locations such as Riyadh Winter Wonderland, Riyadh City Boulevard, and Combat Field Zone. Nathan’s Famous is currently available in 20 countries worldwide. Nathan’s Famous halal hot dogs, crinkle-cut fries, and a variety of classic hot dog toppings, such as chili and cheese, will be available at the kiosks. Nathan’s Famous halal New York Cheesesteak by Pat LaFrieda will also be available at designated kiosks.
With a $300 loan and his wife’s secret recipe, Nathan Handwerker opened his nickel hot dog stand on Coney Island in 1916. He had no idea how famous those hot dogs would become at the time. Legend has it that four immigrants held a hot dog eating contest at Nathan’s Famous Coney Island stand in 1916 to settle a dispute over who was the most patriotic.
