More than 1000 people have paid $100 for a ‘Dragon Dog’, the world’s most expensive hot dog. At the Vancouver restaurant ‘Dougie Dog’, the bratwurst is served soaked in $2000-a-bottle cognac, fried in truffle oil and topped with Kobe beef and fresh lobster. The idea behind the 12″ hot dog was to provide “something super tasty but also high-end” and customers who have been tempted have all absolutely loved it. Hot dogs are normally classed as Fast Food – quick and cheap – but this one can profess to be neither. It must be ordered 12 hours in advance and with no change out of a $100 bill its consumption would take a bit of planning – but at least then you could order a take away and choose somewhere truly delicious to eat it!
Not sure that we would pour our $2000 cognac, Hermitage 1903 Ambleville over a hot dog, it’s much too precious and tasty for that!
