Chef Scott Schroeder of South Philly Tap Room (1509 Mifflin St.) is teaming up with meat man Nick Macri of Southwark (701 S. Fourth St.) to roll out Scott Dogs, a hot dog cart that'll be tapped for farmers markets, festivals, gatherings and special events — including SPTR's May 21 Wheat Beer Festival, the tentative launch date for the operation. Macri is making franks — with a snappy bite, like the ones Schroeder grew up eating in Detroit — strictly from scratch. The plan is to boil up the links in Kenzinger, and then offer up a simple array of toppings, stuff like beef heart chili (another Detroit staple), cheese sauce, homemade relish and other go-tos. Though the May 21 date is not yet set in stone, Schroeder has hopes to roll Scott Dogs out to happenings like the Food Trust Night Market and the Phoenixville farmers market this summer.
