    I was thinking of running a hot dog cart at local tourist national Heritage site near me this summer.

    I will have, registered business, tax compliance, health cert and public liability insurance.

    Would I be ok to pull up and trade? I see I cream vans there the time?

    anyone with any experience I’d be grateful for your input.

    No. You cannot just pull up anywhere and start selling. You'd have to get a licence from the local council.

    Heritage sites in particular can be sticky enough. They aren't going to have any Tom, Dick and Harry turn up and make money off it. Likely they'd charge you rent to sell there.

    I was in Brighton a few weeks ago. in a club. There was a man selling hot dogs in there and he was doin well. There was a queue for them. If I was doing it…and If I had the balls…to do it: I'd wear something that stands out…almost clownish….create a visual draw….

    Thats Interesting about wearing something to catch the attention.

    What about dressing up as a jumbo Hotdog.
