'N Sync singer Joey Fatone is starting his second career—as mall hot dog shop owner. He announced today on Twitter he's opening a hot dog and Italian ice shop called Fat One's—a play on his last name which he has truly embraced.
The shop will open in August at the Florida Mall in Orlando, just minutes from Walt Disney World. The former teen idol tells Delish.com he chose these two foods, in particular, as an homage to his New York roots.
"Being from Brooklyn, hot dogs were a staple during my childhood, and we always ate Italian ices to cool off on hot summer nights," Fatone says. "Looking forward to bringing a piece of my childhood to Orlando."
The shop isn't Fatone's first foray into food—he hosted the Food Network show Rewrapped, a competition show revolving around snack foods.
