VANCOUVER - A Vancouver eatery is billing its new Dragon Dog as the most expensive hotdog in the world.

DougieDog Hot Dogs says the footlong creation is "mouth-wateringly delicious" — and it'll set diners back $100.

The Dragon Dog is made with a bratwurst infused with century-old Louis the 13th cognac, which costs more than $2,000 a bottle.

Other ingredients include Kobe beef seared in olive and truffle oil, fresh lobster and a secret picante sauce.

DougieDog proprietor dougie luv says he wanted to come up something "super tasty and high-end" that stays true to the traditional identity of the hot dog.

The restaurant claims the Dragon Dog is the first hotdog in the world to sell for three figures, challenging the $69 "haute dog" at Serendipity restaurant in New York.

Who would want a hot dog with no mustard and stinky fish eggs on it?

Why spend $100 on a hotdog, when you can get a tasty dog from Costco for only $2 (pop included!). While it does sound good, I'm sure I could make something similar at home, for a fraction of the $100 price tag.

I did manage a restaurant once that sold a $20 hot dog. It didn't stay on the menu for very long.

Hot Dogs don't really become hotdogs until someone puts a frankfurter or a sausage in a bun. The first hotdog served in a bun is given credit to Anton Feuchtwanger who served them at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in 1904. The bun is there because the food is served as street food so there are no utensils or plates, one eats with their hands. The bread protects one's fingers from the heat.

Hotdogs, served as a street food, should not cost $100.00.

This just goes to show you that the 1% are running out of things to do with all of the money they got from the rest of us.

My thoughts exactly. There's no danger...but if I had a hundred dollars to blow, it certainly wouldn't be on that. Actually that is obscene. If they are trying to make me envious of people that will buy something like that.. They have failed again.

Vienna Beef dogs. If it's anything else, it's just not as good... Nathan's, Pink's, Hebrew National... None of em have the snap or the flavor of VB.

I wonder how they decided the right amount to allow?

Taste test panel?

Prolly just asked the manufacturers.

"If you donate to my campaign I will let you tell me what the right amount of rodent feces to allow in your hot dogs should be without causing you too much trouble."

Number of rodents X average droppings per day, divided by # of hot dogs produced, equals amount allowed. Nothing goes to waste.
Plus your previously mentioned "contribution', of course.
