Frank owner Geoff Peveto: What’s in Your Fridge Friday?
Too bad butter isn’t a popular condiment for hot dogs.
Geoff Peveto, co-owner of Frank, the hot dog eatery in the Warehouse District, is a butter freak (just look in the top right corner of that fridge), but he’s just as obsessed of the encyclopedia of condiments he and wife Yancy keep in their fridge.
Peveto, who is also one of the sharp-eyed design geeks behind Decoder Ring Design Concern, opened Frank last summer with Daniel Northcutt, and the restaurant has already won over people who doubted that haute dogs, paired with creative cocktails served in Mason jars, could fly in a town like Austin.
What three things are always in your fridge? The Holy Trinity — Butter, Bacon, Beer. Everything goes better with them.
What is your favorite condiment? I guess mayonesa or any kind of aioli, but our fridge is pretty much half full of condiments and jams so picking one is tough. We may have a condiment problem.
What’s the first thing you pull out of your fridge in the morning? I rarely eat breakfast so I bet the only consistent thing for me is ice for water. My wife, Yancy, grabs a Naked Juice.
