'Hot dog hooker' offers 'lunch and a lap dance'

NEW YORK (FOX5NY) - A woman once dubbed the 'hot dog hooker' is back at it again... she now has a sign in her front yard offering topless lap dances on her swing.

Catherine Scalia was busted in 2012 on misdemeanor prostitution charges after propositioning an undercover police officer inside her hot dog truck.

Scalia has publicly expressed that she is proud to flash her breasts.

“This is what I love to do, sell hot dogs and show off what I got a little bit. If you got it, flaunt it, that’s what I say," Scalia said after the 2012 bust.

Now, she’s offering lap dances... for free... but she'll accept donations.

“I got another 20 years to go before I drop dead. I want you to send all the guys to 12 Maxwell St. in East Rockaway for lunch and a lap dance from the queen,” said Scalia.

Scalia says what she is doing is legal but police say that she's violating a village zoning ordinance and if her sign does not come down a summons will be issued under the adult entertainment-cabaret law.

Neighbors are also not amused.  There are dozens of complaints on a Facebook page called "You know you're from East Rockaway when".

Nassau County Police continue their investigation.

But Scalia says, "To the younger generation out there, do your lap dances.  It's safe and it's legal."
