If you're a hot dog or corndog fan and are looking to try something a little unique, Chung Chun Rice Hot Dog in Seattle is where it's at! Located in the International District, this restaurant offers a unique Korean-style hot dog experience that has been gaining popularity in the US over the last few years.
Korean-style hot dogs are different from the traditional American hot dog in that they are coated in rice flour batter, which gives them a crispy texture when fried. The hot dogs are then topped with a variety of delicious and creative toppings, such as cheese, potato, and even squid ink.
There are so many options to choose from at Chung Chun Rice Hot Dog, try not to be intimidated or overwelmed. Two popular menu items include the Classic Rice Dog and the Squid Ink Rice Dog. The Classic Rice Dog is a perfect starting point for those new to Korean-style hot dogs. It features a crispy hot dog coated in rice flour batter and topped with ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise. Easy peasy! The Squid Ink Rice Dog, on the other hand, is for the more adventurous diner. This hot dog is coated in a black squid ink batter and topped with mozzarella cheese, diced potatoes, and seaweed flakes... a real winner if you ask me!
Do me a favor and just throw fear and intimidation out the window when visiting Chung Chun. It can be fun to try new things, and you never know what you might end up loving. I mean, how bad can it be? It's just a hot dog!
