$100 each? Who do they think I am, the 1%?

Japadog >>> DougieDog. Don't even get between me and an Okonomi hot dog.

Also, I'm kind of proud that my beautiful city is pretty much #1 for kick-ass meat in a bun options. Yes, Vancouver may be boring apart from the occasional bear wandering by, but god dammit we're pretty and we have good food.

Mmmmmm, that does sound good. If I were Mitt Romney I'd be eating hundred-dollar hotdogs right now.
 
2012-01-24 10:23:43 PM
$100? They should have settled for a brandy dog.

But Jesus made tubs of the best wine ever. He didn't charge anyone either.

Hey, Mr.Hipster Hoser, you're about to send a hundred bucks worth of cognac-infused pig snouts and roach droppings down your gullet!

Big farking deal. Most people could never tell the difference between Louis XIII and Hennesey if they drank it out of a glass. There is no way those same people would be able to tell the difference one it is mixed into a hot dog. That being said, a hot dog infused with cognac can be a very tasty dog. I am just saying that there is no need to use Louis XIII.

I've just started hearing this word spoken in lofty words here in New York. Please to explain. All signs, so far, point to deliciousness.

I don't care what you do it, no hot dog can possibly be worth that much.

"Droplets" of Louis XIII mixed in with a [pork?] bratwurst, kobe beef, truffle oil, olive oil, and lobster is just going to get lost in the mix . . . it's a gimmick at that point . . .

Now if he marinates 1/2 oz per pound of ground pork to make his brats . . . . then you're serving something worth $100.

//better be Berkshire pork in that brat

FTA: "The hotdog features a foot-long bratwurst infused with hundred-year-old Louis XIII cognac, which costs over $2000 a bottle and also comes with Kobe beef, seared in olive and truffle oil and fresh lobster."

I swear there was an article with almost all of the same ingredients for a "gourmet" hamburger. Apparently all you need to do to call yourself a gourmet chef is to vomit kobe beef and truffle oil all over a random food ingredient and sell it at an exhorbitant price.

Wasting cognac on a hotdog gets you a hero tag? WTF Fark? Now cognac infused bacon sounds interesting.

Buck Henderson: I've just started hearing this word spoken in lofty words here in New York. Please to explain. All signs, so far, point to deliciousness.

Japanese guy moved to Vancouver and opened a hot-dog stand. Until last year, the number of street stand licenses was very small. After a while it had 30 minutes lineups, he opened 2 more stands and 3 sit in shops. The Vancouver olympics brought world notoriety of the place, the original stand is located right outside some of the main downtown Vancouver hotels. Now the lineups can be even longer (or so I hear, I no longer live there).

It's pretty good, but not worth a 30 minute wait, IMHO. Last year Vancouver upped the number of street stand licenses by a significant number so now everyone is trying to duplicate Japadog's success.
 
2012-01-24 10:55:09 PM
I could get quite a bit more cognac and hot dogs buying them separate than together I do believe.

Of course if I have cognac kinda money I'm probably more inclined to be eating steaks than hotdogs.
 
2012-01-24 10:55:13 PM
Can't really think of a wurst combination.
 
2012-01-24 10:56:47 PM
Just a ploy to drum up free advertising. No one is going to pre-order a $100 hot dog 12 hours in advance.

bobbette: Japadog >>> DougieDog

What did that DoggieDog shop replace? It's hard to tell from google-maps. "Chop-shop"?
 
2012-01-24 10:57:32 PM
I can think of waaaaaaaay better ways to quickly blow $100 in Vancouver.

I'll settle for the 3$ Jim Beam dog. I love tasting sour mash all day.

Agreed. Richelieu would be just as good.

Apparently, they've opened a place here in NY. Quite a variety. Any suggestions or favorites?

FTA: "In designing this hotdog I wanted to come up with something super tasty and high-end that stays true to the traditional identity of the hotdog," said dougieluv, squeezing a droplet of cognac into a split, steaming bratwurst ... with toppings of beer-fed Kobe beef, olive and truffle oil, and fresh lobster.

Well, then, you failed miserably. Lobster on a hot dog? No thank you. You make Chileans look sane in comparison, and I won't even mention what they put on hot dogs.

You start with mustard, onions, and/or Coney Island sauce. You may add ketchup or coleslaw if you wish. Those are your options. After that, it is no longer a proper hot dog.

That sounds... pretty good actually. I'd buy one if I won some money.

Oh right, I read about that (on Fark?) just the other day. It was featured, albeit briefly, on No Reservations, which may give you an idea of what it's about. I believe I had the Okonomi, for which they use black pig meat. It seems people also like the Terimayo a lot.

Meh.

You can get one of these, a drink, and a bacon-wrapped chile with cheese for about ten bucks or less. And fairly good, to be honest (great for soaking booze or a hangover).

Can someone steal the recipe so that I don't have to spend $100

ciberido: You make Chileans look sane in comparison, and I won't even mention what they put on hot dogs.

I really enjoyed Argentinian hot dogs (panchos?). The meat was nothing special, but a choice of any 3 sauces followed by the "rain of potatoes" was amazing nonetheless.

Japadog is very good. Great mix of flavours that he may think don't work on a hot dog but do. Even if you don't like Japanese ingredients just getting a plain is fine because their hotdogs are very high quality. Here's a good review that shows off the flavours.

Actually, the japadog sounds good.

"Greatest Hero", "Cognac-Infused Hot Dog", and "Move Over Jesus" are all sex moves, you know. So it's been done before.

Thanks for the pointers. Gonna hit it up sometime this week after work.

Of course. Nothing beats...

As someone who is currently mainlining some fine cognac into my peenor vein I'm really getting a kick.

2012-01-24 11:54:57 PM
OK, I like hotdogs and I like an occasional small dose of cognac. But! I can't reconcile the combining of the two. Hotdogs are fine as they are, and they go great with beer. Cognac is a good evening sipping drink, and goes great after dinner with some quiet music and talking with my non-dumb friends. WORLDS COLLIDING!

cognac is so disgusting I would probably vomit just from smelling these moronic ideas for food combination, I surely would not want to eat one


protip..just because rich people drink and or eat something does not make it good, quit pretending and actually admit this stuff sucks ass


also of note, the mona lisa is an ugly poorly painted craptastic demonstration of how NOT to paint
