Hot dog! Only US$69
The latest culinary offering from expensive NYC: a US$69 hot dog.
Not a misprint, it’s available at Serendipity 3, and it’s said to be the most expensive hot dog in the world, according to popfi.com.
It begins with a Ball Park foot-long dog. But then things get strange.
Said the restaurant’s co-owner Joe Calderone:
“It’s twelve inches of beef perfection, grilled in white truffle oil, and it’s placed in a toasted pretzel bun that is toasted with white truffle butter, and then it’s topped with medallion of duck fois gras with black truffles.”
He defends his dog: “You go to a steakhouse and there are $50-$60 steaks on the menu, so the price is not unreasonable. It can be split in two and people can enjoy because it is very rich.”
