My father owned the dry cleaners on Coney Island Avenue and Ave X. I remember opening day for Big Daddys and I ate lunch there every saturday when I worked for my dad. Truly was second only to Nathans.

I worked at Big Daddy's during the Summer of 1975. Quite a trip...

Very nostalgic times for me looking at these pictures. I remember eating the best hot dogs and burgers here. Better than Nathans I thought.

I remember going to Big Daddys all the time. Used to live close off of Avenue Z. Wish I could still go there. Was second only to Nathans

Anyone remember if they had Capozella (broiled lamb brain) on the menu in Brooklyn?
As far as I can remember no Capozella, but ironically I was just talking about that dish the other day. They did have Frog Legs (which by the way Nathan's in Coney Island stillk serves).
