| - I was curious about this place since it opened up near where I used to work, and now I've been here a couple of times I have to say, I'm not sure if it's worth it.
The hot dogs and potato sides are exciting and gimmicky, with spiral potatoes (like the ones you've seen on Instagram!!!! wow!!!) and hot dogs with about a thousand toppings, all for QUITE A LOT MORE than a hot dog normally sells for.
I had a hot dog with avocado and tobiko, a spiral potato with garlic, and then accidentally more fries (if you can call them that, they're more like spud shavings, which sounds far worse than it tastes - they're quite nice, though they go cold quickly). The waitress asked if I wanted to make it a combo, and I thought that included the spiral potato! Nope!
Avocado + hot dog is not a great texture combination - it's too cold, soft and wet to be a great accompaniment to a frankfurter. The tobiko was generously portioned, but that meant it was incredibly difficult to eat - the antithesis of hot doggery.
The spiral potato was lovely: very garlicky, fun to eat, but it's thinness cooled it off fast and soon it was a slightly soggy tater :(
Also they didn't seem to have...regular Coke? They just had all those weird flavoured ones like mango and ginger. I had the ginger one. It was unimpressive, but whatever, that's Coke's fault.
I'm not sure how worth the cost is. Was it fun? Yeah! It was also $20! So! That's a lot!
Up to you, really. If you want an expensive ~experience~ go for it!
