Korean Rice Hot Dogs & Buttery Egg Toasts Now Available On LES View all 10
Over the summer I ate a really good corn dog on MacDougal Street that reminded me how much I love to eat a really good corn dog. You don t often see these portable street treats on menus around here, but come on, a snappy hot dog stick on a stick, encased in crisp fried dough, dipped in mustard? Delicious.
Even more rare in New York City than those beach-shack classics, though, are rice hot dogs, which use rice flour instead of corn flour on the outside, come stuffed, studded, sauced, and sprinkled with all kinds of goodies. There have been a few attempts to bring these beasts to Manhattan (at a place called Snowy Village last winter, for example, which has since closed), but based on a street feast I had earlier this week at a tiny storefront called Oh K-Dog, which just opened on Ludlow Street, the latest foray might actually stick.
