About me / Bio:
Nathan Handwerker was a Polish-American restaurateur who immigrated to the United States in 1912. He started his career as a bread slicer at Feltman's German Gardens, a restaurant that sold hot dogs for 10 cents each. In 1916, he and his wife Ida opened their own hot dog stand on Coney Island, selling them for a nickel and using Ida's secret spice recipe. Their business grew into a fast food chain that became famous for its hot dogs, fries, and annual hot dog eating contest. Nathan's Famous expanded to over 400 locations in the US and abroad, and its products are sold in thousands of stores. Nathan Handwerker died in 1974 at the age of 81, leaving behind a legacy of an iconic American food brand.
