Zippity Do Dog is for sale again as owners cite health issues

Just six months after taking ownership of the popular Framingham hot dog stand Zippity Do Dog , owners Alan and Paponake MacIntosh are looking for a new buyer, citing health reasons. The MacIntoshes took over the beloved hot dog stand parked at 160 Speen St. in May and have since revamped the menu with new ingredients and items while continuing the nearly 20 year old business. They purchased the stand from former owner Roland Houle, who stepped away from the business after seven years to pursue a new career opportunity. In a social media post on Nov. 4, the MacIntoshes announced that they made the decision to sell Zippity Do Dog and find a new owner to continue the business. "Due to recent health complications, we have been forced to make the incredibly difficult decision to sell Zippity Do Dog," the post read. "It is a special part of the community with a wonderful history and loyal customers who have made every day worthwhile." The MacIntoshes own Doragon Eatery in Ashland, which they are also looking to sell. Alan MacIntosh told the Daily News that they have not identified a potential buyer for the restaurant and said it could be

Long before Massachusetts had highways and food trucks, it had taverns, and those rooms were where neighbors swapped news, planned protests, and waited for word from the next town.

This Massive Massachusetts Grocery Store Is Worth A Road Trip For Its Huge Holiday Selection

A model train runs along the back wall of this grocery store, right above the dairy case. I can’t think of a better way to make buying milk feel like a small adventure. The store opens at 6 AM and stays open until midnight, seven days a week. That gives you a lot of hours to plan a holiday feast.

Quinn's Irish Pub, Cosmopolitan Club among Thanksgiving Eve favorites

On Thanksgiving eve, the “West Boylston Street shuffle” has been the go-to move for many a Burncoat High School graduate. For the uninitiated, the shuffle calls for meandering the underrated mecca of reveling that is West Boylston Street, from one convivial pub to another, in search not of flashy frills but of familiar vibes. Even out-of-towners and transplants can follow in the steps of these locals — through the doors of a family-owned bar on the night before Thanksgiving. Dress down. Expect warm welcomes. In this city — particularly the years post legendary Park Avenue institution Cactus Pete’s Steakhouse and Saloon — where one ventured out on Thanksgiving eve has depended on where one went to high school. Among other places, South kids more than likely visit Galway Bay Irish Pub , 186 Stafford St. Holy Name kids may flock to the Cosmopolitan Club , 96 Hamilton St. And Burncoat kids shuffle everywhere along West Boylston Street, but namely Quinn’s Irish Pub . Quinn’s double dips, opening on Thanksgiving, too.
