Charleston RiverDogs News Release


This season, Soy Happy has consulted with the Charleston RiverDogs on menu items for their Greenhouse stand. We are happy to share that they heeded every suggestion we offered, including a signature veggie dog (see the update from Tim Savona, below) and the option of vegetarian chili as a topping.

Here's what's in the works for hungry and heart happy fans at Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park, a 5,549 seat stadium on the banks of the Ashley River of Charleston, South Carolina: Lightlife Foods' Jumbo SMART dogs (vegan, kosher) and veggie chili (also vegan), hummus and pita chips, organic blue chips, organic trail mix, whole fruits, veggie trays, roasted peanuts, tea, Michelob ultra beer, and mini bottles of wine. Additionally, their popular specialty sandwich made up of peanut butter, banana and honey called "The Elvis" will be served here.

Here is a recent update from Tim Savona, the Food & Beverage Director at the RiverDogs' Joseph P. Riley Jr. Park:

The stand is coming along well. We have added a roasted peanut grab bag from Reece's and a trail mix from them as well. Also; we have finalized our specialty dog for the stand. It is called the Grateful Dead Dog (It was supposed to be the grateful dog but the printer made an error and we thought it was funny so we kept it). The Grateful dead dog is a piece of lavash, painted with humus and a Jamaican relish. We then place the veggie dog on it, roll it, and serve it as a wrap. It has done well thus far. Still looking to market it more but each day it is pulling along better!... The veggie dog with veggie chili has been a great hit. The stand is not overwhelmed with business but it is always hitting good numbers. Our labor has remained where it needs to be which means we are making the right amount of money!

Of course, fan awareness and a little time will be the ultimate way to gage the success of that stand. If you're in the area, catch a game this season! Thank Tim Savona while you're there.

Note: The Greenhouse stand is the first stand when you enter the stadium.
