They are the classic summer foods: affordable, portable, and good. Tonight, we're celebrating hamburgers, hot dogs and ice cold treats. Shayna Seymour gets out the grill with celebrity chef Michael Schlow and discovers his award winning recipe for juicy burgers. Plus, she samples the latest in creative combos: would you believe an egg and brie burger? We also drop into the Boston parking lot that's home to America's top dog, according to the an extensive Wall Street Journal investigation. And Mary Richardson tries some ice cream alternatives – gelato, frozen yogurt and frozen custard – just in time for slurping season.
