    Red Hott

    With the hot dog coma you’re bound to fall into, this place is rather a pilgrim for hot dog aficionados. Tucked at Terrace Plus The One, your palate is about is go through an experimental ride and the results can never fall short of “delicious.” Start off by picking the buns, Parmesan Cheese or Poppy Seeds, then choose your meat, chicken or beef, followed by the main draw, eclectic toppings yearning to be part of your bite. Look beyond mustard, diced onions and ketchup, how about Teriyaki sauce, seaweed, turkey slices, German curry sauce and Japanese Mayonnaise? If palm-sized batons are not fulfilling your gargantuan appetite, say hello to the 15–inch hot dog, the meat is pure chicken thigh, shrouded with cheddar cheese and coney sauce, sides of Mexican bread with German curry and coleslaw.

    halal

    Rather a veiled out joint at Bukit Gambier yet highly vaunted for its mouthwatering mashup of burgers and Western food. Their hot dogs are among the best sellers and hands down, it’s not your regular roadside fare. After picking up some chars on the griddle, the juicy hotdog is blanked in a spongy bun, topped with shredded cabbage, cheese, sunny-side egg, grilled pineapple and drizzles of chili sauce round up the rhapsody. Each bite is worth closing your eyes and savouring the moment, the runny egg yolk just cascades and binds all the elements, a tinge of sweetness from the pineapple, crunchy greens, melting cheese and succulent hot dog are spot on.

    Pos Burger

    A common rule to live by for any foodie, if it’s soaring crowd, never hesitate and join the beeline. A similar scenario applies to this bustling burger joint, just a stone’s throw away from Jelutong Post Office. Their burgers and hotdogs are rather inured for typical Malaysian palate – sloppy, meaty and utterly messy, ensuring love at each bite. Nicely browned hot dog sits on a bed of shredded cabbage, carrot, potatoes, tomatoes and cucumbers, and then generously smeared with mayonnaise and chili sauce. Amiable owner and open-air dining space wrap up a pleasant meal.

    I Hot Dog

    Relatively a new contender to the hot dog scene, yet I Hot Dog has been stretching appetites of Penangites with a whole new dimension of toppings. The front runner from the challenging yet comforting menu is the Cheese Lover, where a slab of gooey American cheese blankets the juicy and meaty flank. For a little tang of sweetness, Hawaiian takes charge, seaweed and bonito kick in a little Japanese touch, while Mario has bits of button mushrooms. In a nutshell, dine here all week long and a wide spectrum of flavours ensure you palate never gets bored. A handful of piping hot fries elevates the whole chomping experience.
