You cannot have some chancer selling kebabs etc outside some other fast food place who pay rent,rates,insurance and have to comply with hygene standards.
Hot Dog stand in the O2, I was expecting for the 6e he'd make it up in front of you and throw in the onions or mustard as you design.
Me ring, he lobbed us out a bag in which the fucking thing was premade, and you have to put in your own ketchup or mustard. Fucking joke, hotdog was fucking rotten too.
You get 10 hotdogs in Lidl for 1.50 and they're fucking savage. Get some buns and some french's mustard and you're in heaven, fuck that hot dog stall, fucking cunts.
Has anyone any info regarding the law and selling burgers,hotdogs, chips etc on Patrick street.
Or any street for that matter.
Is it allowed ?
Must you get a special permit ?
I thought i heard a story before about a guy who invested alot of mula in hotdog/burger stands but just before he was about to hit the street he wasnt allowed for some reason.
Any info would be great on this matter.
Sound
Myself and two of my mates recently looked into this as a business venture and it was a no go.
Basically there is a vendors licence for on street trading such as the Coal Quay vendors but this licence does not cover night time trading on the street for Hotdogs/Burger Stands etc...
The City Council will object it although it's easier to do it via the County Council but you will not be allowed trade in the City Centre but can do so in the Suburbs like, Douglas, Wilton etc.
Myself and my mates, one of whom works in The Dáil was able to get all the information we needed and that was the final conclusion after he approached policitians he knew about the idea we had.
There is a policitians son who has a vendors licence and wanted to do this in Cork City but he was rejected on his application and if he hasn't got this up and going on the street you can be sure the average Joe Soap isn't going to get it done.
We tried to approach it via the Rickshaw route but it seems Rickshaws can't charge a set price and you'd notice they only ask for 'tips', this can be done with the food side of things but then you're gonna hit hassles with people not wanting to 'tip' you for a free Hotdog/Burger.
Friends tried to do it before.
We came up a chilli hotdog called the langer banger for the peoples of cork.
A licence was need though.
So it never happened.
Hahaha,langer banger.. I would've bought one just cuz of that!
