Rep. Hoxha Tours Steve's Top Dog and Smokehouse

If you're in Plymouth and haven't been to Steve's Top Dog and Smokehouse on Main Street yet, it's worth stopping by. Earlier this week, State Rep. Joe Hoxha had a chance to meet with Owner Steve Lavoie and hear more about his new venture. Steve said Stepping away from the hot dog cart provides him with a venue to test his culinary abilities and be more creative. Depending on the day, he enjoys throwing together new items to see what his customers' reactions might be. Don't let the restaurant's name fool you, while smokehouse is an essential part of the menu, it isn't the only fare, he also specializes in some American and French-Canadian favorites as well. While hot dogs are always a favorite, they serve wings, flatbreads, burgers, wraps, sandwiches, soups and salads.
