The corn fritters were a crunchy tangy snack, and we found ourselves just eating those off the top of the fries. Once again, the sauce was watery and tasted like nacho cheese with spices - not a fan. This dish tops these fries with the same tangy corn-sauce and chile-lime-dusted corn fritters from the last meal. The chips were warm and had the right amount of saltiness. The Award Wieners “filmstrip fries” are a year-round offering. These fries have a little bit more going for them. Cheesy “Corn” Fries (Filmstrip fries topped with tangy corn-cheese sauce, chile-lime-dusted corn fritters, pickled Fresno Chiles and cilantro) – $8.99 The fruit that accompanied the sausage was two mandarin oranges, and that tasted like… oranges. The potato bun was soft and was a little denser than a regular hot dog bun. We thought the same way with the Fresno Chiles. They had a tangy taste, but it did not match the rest of the meal. The best part of the plate was the chile-lime-dusted corn fritters. Plus, there were pieces of corn in it, which threw it off completely.įor more information on booking your next trip with our official travel agent sponsor, the Vacationeer, visit avel. The cheese sauce was strange, as it was watery and did not compliment the rest of the dish. It lead to a very unpleasant taste and ruined the whole dish. The sausage was loaded with cheese, but all the cheese was sitting at the bottom of the sausage. It was undercooked, and the flavoring was strange. That’s not the only reason to stay away.įirst, let us start with the sausage. It’s a cheese and corn heavy dish, so if you aren’t a fan of these, I would stay away. The description of the dog makes it sounds rather appealing, “cheddar sausage, tangy corn-cheese sauce, chile-lime-dusted corn fritters, pickled Fresno Chiles and cilantro on a toasted potato bun.” Obviously, a lot is going on.

After seven years, Han and Lee sold their fried chicken establishment to try out hot dogs. Han’s family has operated a fried chicken restaurant in South Korea since 1988, so when she moved to the U.S., she decided to open one of her own. (If you look closely at the Seoul Hotdog logo, you’ll see the numbers 83 and 90 to signify each of the owners’ birth years.) Han didn’t want to name-check the restaurant out of respect to the new owner, but you can probably figure it out. Han, 37, of Snohomish, and Lee, 29, of Edmonds, previously owned a popular Korean fried chicken restaurant - also not a South Korean chain. “We tried 30 different kinds of hot dogs,” Han said.

In January, the Korean franchise Chun Chun opened in Seattle’s Chinatown-International District. Korean corn dog restaurants have been popping up like crazy in Seattle, Los Angeles and New York. Lee said he likes to dip the mozza dog into the sweet chili sauce. Dip them in sweet chili, honey mustard, yellow mustard and/or ketchup. Then there are the condiments for your dog.

When your hot dogs are ready, you get to decide if you’d like them with sugar, just like they’re served in Korea. Many times I stopped eating to remark “This is so cool!” or “This is so fun!” Mark and I agree that Korean hot dogs are cool-looking - especially the ones that are studded with french fries - and they’re fun to eat - especially the ones that are filled with stringy mozzarella cheese. These are not the corn dogs I grew up with in the 1970s.” “But Seoul Hotdog made me reconsider my opinion about corn dogs.
