HOT DAWG
One of the best things about living a few blocks away from the Ft. Greene flea market (besides the awesome vintage goods and indie wares) is THE FOOD (hellloooo Red Hook vendors!)! Asia Dog had been on our hit list ever since we read about it on Tasting Table, and I’m happy to say, we sampled the goods and crossed it off with very satisfied bellies. I mean, just look at these beauties!
Bryn got the veggie Sidney: cucumber, mango, and onion (oh my!).
As an epic banh mi fan, I went with a veggie Vinh: carrots, cucumbers, jalapenos, and cilantro. My mouth was on fire, but it was burnin’ with love.
And Caroline went with the real beef Ginny: kimchi with nori flakes (back to her roots, y’all). Delish on all accounts. Next time I’m goin’ Wangding (Chinese BBQ pork belly, whhhaaat!), just so I can say Wangding with a purpose to a stranger. Of course, there was no better way to cool my tastebuds than with an icy popsicle from People’s Pops.
These guys were the nicest, happy to describe each mouth-watering flavor and indulging our indecisiveness with endless patience. It was hard to pass up the ginger + lemon shaved ice, but as soon as my blueberry + cardamom pop hit my lips, I knew I’d made the right decision. It was THE taste of summer, people. Caroline went peaches + cream, a much milder flavor , but just as tasty. I gotta say, these pops were the tops!

I’m a Canadian girl living in Korea, and thanks to this post I recreated ‘The Ginny’ – what a great Friday lunch.
Seaweed flakes on a hot dog – perfection!
