No-frills outpost specializing in Italian hot dogs with all the trimmings in counter-serve settings.
Jimmy Buff’s of 14th Ave. & 9th St. in Newark, NJ is where the hotdog with an Italian twist was first concocted by the founder James Bluff Racioppi in 1932. Grandpa got his nickname from his style at the card table. Translation from Italian to English came up with the nickname BUFF. In the 20s and 30s everyone had a nickname and hence James Racioppi became known as Jimmy Buff.
The sandwich was first served as a treat by the Racioppi’s for close friends and relatives. It went over so big with them it became the center of their menu and ultimately a customer favorite. The fresh onions, peppers, and potatoes combines with a hot dog is what allows the speciality its claim to originality.
