North Hollywood we serve hot dogs galore

dogs over actually a pink

vicious cuz you know we just enjoyed
eating hot dogs so vicious dogs is wrong
in LA hot dog upbringing absolutely
today I'm gonna be serving you my basic
hot dog $2 99 and we're gonna top it
with head tuck mustard relish onions it
is the most traditional hot dog in Los
Angeles actually across America
the secret is making sure that you find
the best quality hot dog start there and
you finish there he recommended that we
get the hot dog with fries and a coke
that's it wrap these hot peppers for our
hot dogs where they for burning your
butt Oh hot dog high-five let's go Wow
or haha I like to hide that snap back
when I bite into a hot dog yeah when you
get that's important but is soft but not
mushy
it isn't like crumble or get to dampen
your fingers this is nice wholesome
satisfying perfect I want it to more
fried your knit that's the stuff good
and then after that I'm gonna make you
my favorite hot dog which is my
signature sweet with spicy cabassa it's
a actual 1/3 pound kielbasa we
char-broil it to perfection we put sweet
chili glaze on there rolled onions
grilled peppers we put it snugly in the
little poppy seed but it isn't that good
and then my signature dog is $6 out of
the hundred plus hot dogs that we've
created here every single one of them
has its own distinct flavor this is a
much more formidable hot dog
built and now we eat it yeah that is hot
pretty good that's pretty great the
sweetness really plays with the
smokiness I just love how when you bite
into it it's like you're just getting a
big hunk of me I don't want to finish it
cuz I wanted to be savoring it oh he
likes it he's smiling alright thanks to

hot ball please the next place
I don't know how to pronounce it though
it's a German name I think it's
pronounced horse push hopefully they can
teach how to say the name of the
restaurant yeah hopefully they know the
place that they work
[Music]
so Steven Andrew wall
welcome to wolf cuca today we're gonna
let's high you pronounce what scooter my
cousin and I opened this store in 2008
you're in the arts district since then
we've been serving nothing other than
beer sausage and Belgian style fries
perfect perfect combination so the name
and the overall format is reminiscent of
like a German beer hall your first time
to the restaurant are gonna walk into a
dining room that it's just warm and
inviting once you sit down you've
already paid for your foods one other
beer you go get one if you just want to
hang out and draw on the tables and talk
you go for it we're gonna get started
with the lamb sausage completely pork
free for anybody who chooses not to eat
pork our sausages have a choice of four
topping carmelized onions sweet peppers
spicy peppers and sauerkraut I do have a
question I am actually not a beard I do
you have a peer recommendation though
have somebody like me the first one I'm
gonna recommend with these touches to
cladonia you're either gonna love it or
you're gonna be like really so we're
starting off with the beer that he
recommended the duchess de Bourgogne oh
[Music]
really it's goddamn fruit punch it might
kind of be no it's delicious but it's
like Adam tell me what this tastes like
it's starburst so first up is lamb with
Mediterranean spices they want to make
sure all the sausages are four ounces
the Lambs actually two ounces prayer
sausage they double up and they put two
in one button it's like us - its Adam
the butter you're the button that holds
us together Adam I'm gonna get the
mustard do not eat anything when I'm
gone I'll be right back hey so he
recommended the spicy Brown is his
favorite high five up high
yeah hello in the mid ace huh in your
face you like the taste of lamb
oh yeah everybody's so satisfying can
you get that snap every single time here
you get two snaps double-barrel sausage
very lambing true to its name and it is
a bit of a musky er flavor this is gonna
be the best lamb sausage you ever ate
oh boy I'm in love and then we have a
fun one - rattlesnake and rabbit is one
of our top sellers so when we order the
rattlesnake what happens in the kitchen
the world of sausage hasn't changed
ever sausages are made ahead of time and
when you order it we throw it on the
ground the first sausage we've had
that's shaped like the animal it comes
from ooh smell it's nice and spicy very
interesting the more I eat the more I'm
into it it's a lot gamey or taste but it
is really good I have had like crocodile
me and it was as close to that as any
other meat I've ever had things are the
most you've ever eaten on an episode
because I love hot dogs I'm the hot dog
honcho kablammo and now with our final
hot dog back hot dogs the most expensive
hot dog is $169 and it exists in Seattle
Washington
fortunately but for this video
yes we're meeting tomorrow the airport
at 4:30 a.m. and we're going to see at
4:30 a.m.

are bada-bing bada-boom sausage dance
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
Oh doc we have flown many many miles to
come to the most expensive pop-up in the
world which I had to order by the way
two weeks ago all the trees are changing
color it's beautiful what could make
these how about better than in calcdp
at first time I just can't think
straight I eat hot dogs all of yesterday
you're living the dream the dream town
you
we're here today at buggy dog food truck
I'm Eugene this is Sampson we are
co-creators of the most expensive pop
dog in the world it's $169 here is the
Guinness world record plaque so it's
official tell us a little more about
Tokyo dog we were both in the tech
industry about five years ago I was like
well would it be fun is to open a food
truck how did you come up with this
crazy hot dog we wanted to do something
really fun and bring the record home and
it's a fundraising hot dog we donated to
all the proceeds to the Red Cross
we spent about three months creating
this hot dog and we came up with 12-inch
brioche bun smoked cheese bratwurst
bagua Wagyu beef maitake mushrooms
butter teriyaki onions Japanese Mayo
black truffles caviar and is phenomenal
we walk away from LA to try this hot dog
can you not devour this one so fast yeah
I have a problem eating things a little
bit too quickly and not savoring them
but I think this one is gonna require
some special attention we've reached the
final place after it's 16 hundred and
ninety miles of traveling the $159 juni
Vaughn dog we usually drink wine is the
last spot but this is the wine of Japan
I think that's true
Cheers oh this is so good everything on
this we've had in some shape or form
except for the caveat there's a lot more
food than a lot of the other dogs ah the
Titanic of hot dogs yeah and I am the
iceberg about to take this bad boy down
feel like it's time to eat high five
[Music]
holy schmoly
that's Wow hands-down the best hot dog
experience I've ever had its massive
you got trouble coming to the left
caveat up hook up in the bottom you got
the dog cheese squirting out at you it's
a flavor explosion or mmm the craziest
part to me is we've got all these
incredible ingredients on top and the
dog itself still shines through with the
art everything else is like a glamorous
costume for him it took them 10 tries
they said to get to this dog balancing
which ingredients you use this moment
right now I never wanted to end you know
what it never will end cuz what got was
dog we got left I think I actually a
more than me this time I'm gonna eat
this all day are you for real I can't
believe we ate $169 hotdogs and it was
worth it mission complete what a day
what a dog technically this dog cause
like over a thousand dollars flowing cuz
I bought you guys plane tickets the
Seattle which dogs last ounces was the
most worth it at its price the Tokyo dog
was a little bit crazy but at least
you're giving to charities but for me
the winners burst through because they
have those unique dogs at a reasonable
price dog I want to say vicious dogs
because I love a good deal my vote
actually and probably very stupidly goes
to talking about this whole experience
blindness Seattle with you guys and
experiencing that monstrosity was like
one of the most fun times of my life oh
my god are you better proposed I think
it's safe to say that if the hot dog
goes in your hand and you're eating it
that's a good dog effect if you stick a
hot dog on each of your fingers and go
like this
you'll have a hot dog yeah oh yes
