"One of the most popular, Instagrammable low-cost treats in the court are the fried hot dogs on a stick (each starts at $5; that is the minimum purchase required to pay with a credit card). The stall also sells tanghulu (juicy candied fruit on a skewer). The signature extra-thick, cornless “corn dogs” are speared on a stick and battered with rice flour for a yeasty sweet-and-savory flavor; the default dog is pork (an upgrade to beef is $1 more). Vegetarians can opt for mozzarella-only or rice-cake centers, and customers can wrap dogs in cheddar or choose half meat and half “mozza” for epic cheese pulls. Diced white or sweet potatoes can be mixed into the batter for a starch-studded snack; a $1.50 Hot Cheetos crumb coating is a popular option. Wash it down with a slush drink." - Su-Jit Lin
