The upscale deep-fried corn dog business is expanding into Preston Center. After opening their first restaurant in northwest Dallas about a year ago, the mother-daughter duo of Vickie Fletcher, who worked at the State Fair of Texas overseeing the sale of millions of corn dogs since the 1980s, and Jace Fletcher Christensen are spreading their fancy fried food fare.
The unusual name, CornDog with No Name, is the result of a lawsuit that settled out of court. The original name of the first spot, EatFletch, got Christensen in hot water with her step-grandmother, who sued her for using part of her last name in fear people would think they're serving the official fair corn dogs (they're not). Christensen agreed not to use the name and, in a hurry to reopen the restaurant, slapped up a sign that read CornDog With No Name.
