YoYo's Hot Dogs

On Instagram, people were going crazy for this hot dog, naturally I got curious.
It's not exactly a truck.  There is a guy who has a truck-ish and has a set up.

They technically don't start until 8p but by 7:45p it was about 20+ deep and line started to form.

As you can see, they were still cooking and getting things ready... 

They only sell one kind of hot dog, if you want to customize, this is not the place nor do they have time to do it given the line they've got. 

This is YoYo's New York Street Style Hot Dog, that has: cream cheese, spicy mustard, curry ketchup, grilled onions, crunchy fried onions, honey mayo and sriracha.

So obviously, the mayo sriracha combo is on top.  This is not pretty eating this.  It takes much skills to not make a mess.  But whatever the voodoo that they do, is great.  You have grilled onions underneath, but the crunchy onions on top helps give it texture.  Hot Dog is Nathan's hot dog.  This whole thing for $4.50.  Add a bottle of water/soda for $1 more and is $5.50 for a quick meal.

This is definitely a college dinner/snack for the evening before loading up for more alcohol.  This is a good stop too.  They set up stall at the parking lot and every time we turn around, the line gets longer.  And even after we paid the line was still going strong.  Not only that one of the kids were telling us that if it's a game night at the stadium nearby, forgetaboutit.  The line would wrap around the building and then more.  That's the power of this dog!

They do have an iPad to take your credit card, but if you have exact change, that would help move the line much faster and everyone appreciates that.  They are only open Thursday thru Saturday after 8pm, we got there 15 till and the line was about 20 deep, so you do the math.
