We bought Levis Hot Dogs, a landmark hot dog emporium in Philadelphia since 1895, in 1990 because we wanted to produce Champ Cherry soda in bottles. After trying to run the original store which was really a shrine to people who went to Levis with their fathers and grandfathers when they were 10 years old, we finally closed the store when the lease expired. The original marble soda fountain which Abe Levis bought for $30 in 1895 is in pieces in my basement waiting for restoration. Don’t forget the pickles!
