8 inches of 100% tube steak smothered in mustard & wrapped in a bun is what I'm giving a " HELL YA…read more" about. Imagine it's a late night and its announced last call from another evening of alcohol intake and debauchery. Since I didn't have a the accompaniment of female I decided a mystery tube of meat at HOT DOG JOE's was my last stop. A gentleman requested my order for which I shouted out and handed him some currency . He fans the flames & grilled my mystery meat tube and slopped some yellow mustard atop. He wrapped my dog in a paper wrap and handed it to me a few minutes later. With dog in hand I stood around on the streets of Seattle with a host of locals & Hipster Doofus's all chowing down the best meal at 2am you ever consume. Thanks Joe or whatever your name is I appreciate the meal.

Let's face it out this late I'm only drinking and making bad decisions so hell what's one more with an all beef dog.... 12 Inches of meat, mustard and bun is all FRANK needs to coat my stomach... Ok, the chef is an amazing. Only using a crusty grill and fire he turns the mystery meat tubes into fine dining... Your nostrils can smell the searing flesh and onions a block away. As you make your way closer to the grill you canine teeth grow longer to masticate that charred dog. I mean FRANK needs some black charred marks on his dog to verify it's grilled to perfection... I always asked for the most grilled meat simply for taste, crispness and making sure I don't get E. coli from undercooked meat.... Once I have in hand I gobble it up and then it's time to make my way to bed..... Leave a tip cause FRANK B says so !

A Seattle dog is a quintessential food item while visiting Seattle. I am happy to say the Dog In The Park Seattle Dog lived up to my expectations. A crispy grilled dog, cream cheese, and plenty of grilled veggies. There are loads of toppings to choose from, too, but the young man serving up the dogs recommended just plain for the first time to really get the classic experience. I think some light mustard and maybe some saurkraut would have been a great addition. Friendly service and good recommendations for a first-timer, though. This location is located not too far from Pike Place and Westlake station. Convenient location. The price is great too! Go enjoy a Dog In The Park!

I went with the veggie chipotle dog for a spicy kick and it was decent. I do appreciate that the veggie dog is the same price as the normal hot dogs- it's rare to find that. I think the condiments are what makes a hot dog, so having mustards and sauerkraut on the side was nice (no extra charge). The guy working was pretty efficient and accommodated our request of no cream cheese. Overall, it filled a craving, but I wouldn't say I'm running back to get another one.

Several different options with hotdogs and polish sausage- my absolute favorites are the Seattle Dog and the Midnight Sophie. Whichever you choose- don't forget to ask for some of their homemade slaw to top that beautiful dog! I first found Secret Sausage outside the Owl and Thistle in Pioneer Square. Then outside the Clink after a game. It was an elusive Seattle street food treat- and in a lot of ways still is. They've expanded in recent years so sometimes you can find them at Microsoft campuses on occasion too. But I'll let you in on a little secret... they have a deal with the Thunderbird Tavern in Ballard. So if you're craving a Seattle Dog on a random Tuesday at 8:30pm for example... high tail it to the Thunderbird and get you one! Especially on a warm Summer evening: a Seattle dog with extra slaw, a glass of your favorite cold drink and a spot on the back patio - doesn't that sound so good right now?! Another favorite with Secret Sausage is The Firlander Sauce. While I personally am not a big fan of hot sauce, this spicy condiment has been a staple in our family for several years now. I've been told it makes a good gourmet hotdog over-the-top good! Ha! So if you're a hot sauce fan- it's a must try. Locally owned small business with a commitment to quality. Every hotdog I've ever had from them (ahem, and there have been a few over the years,) has been consistently good. Seriously, the best!

And while plenty of vendors are more style than substance, the market is home to plenty of gems. A good bet is to follow the crowds, and few places boast the popularity of Daily Dozen Donut Company. This frill-free donut-ery has been around for nearly 50 years, and plenty of locals will admit it to be a guilty pleasure. Find Daily Dozen on the top floor of the Economy Market building at the southernmost end of Pike Place proper. Push your way through the crowd watching fish-slingers to find the fast-moving line of donut-craving customers. As you wait, you will pass Daily Dozen's signature "donut robot" mechanical conveyor belt, plopping dough balls one-by-one into an oversized ceramic bowl. Staff members shake paper bags of piping hot donuts to the beat of classic rock. My fiancee and I visited Pike Place on a weekend, and Daily Dozen was on our hit list. After a 15-minute wait, we excitedly ordered a half-dozen Cinnamon Donuts and a single Maple Bacon Donut. The ping pong-sized cinnamon-dusted donut holes were piping hot; I burned my mouth in ravenous delight. The light, crispy texture was reminiscent of funnel cake. They far exceeded the frosted, room-temperature maple bacon donut hole. The staff efficiently churned through the line that loops around the corner. A half-dozen sugar donuts retails for $6.50, and the additional maple bacon one was a $1. While the latter wasn't worth the appetite (much less the cost), the bagful of fresh donuts was a simple pleasure that would be worth a visit for any donut-lover.

The dhokla was just OK, it could've been a little bit sweeter and a little bit spongier. Also for eight dollars it's only four pieces. Service: The young man who was serving the food was very friendly and gave us our food quickly. Ambience: This is a small tea and snack shop by Pike market. It's definitely worth a try. I wish I had also tried the bhel as I heard great things. Recommend giving this place a try, especially if you want an Indian flavor profile and garam chai for the overcast and rainy days.
