Joey Fatone: Fat One’s

This former NSYNC member opened up Fat One’s in 2017 as a small hot dog stand outside of a strip mall in Orlando, Florida. He initially did it without telling any of his customers who he was, he wanted his food to precede his reputation in the entertainment industry. However, after a while, people caught on, and by a while we mean exactly one hour into his first service—someone posted a viral tweet that spread like wildfire and clogged up the tiny strip mall parking lot that the stand was originally in.

Since then, Fatone and his crew have opened a storefront and a food truck. Joey doesn’t work the counter anymore, but he’s always in the back prepping and cooking all day. He’s the kind of boss that’s the first one there, the last one to leave, and has the biggest smile on his face out of anybody.
