EatsPlace, the restaurant incubator on Georgia Avenue, has a new pop-up: Haiyo Dog, a Japanese/Chinese hot dog spot. It sounds pretty awesome, there’s a lot of options plus deals, like $12 for a shot, beer and hot dog. They also have soups, pierogis and more. Here’s more from chef and founder Katy Chang:
It’s housemade milk bread buns with local dogs (including veggie dogs) and Asian-inspired toppings. The name comes from a mash up of some of the places I’m inspired by (Shanghai + Tokyo + Ohio). When I was a very young child and heard people say good morning in Japanese, I always thought they were saying “Ohio” and marveled at how the small the world was. I took the coincidence as a sign to start Haiyo Dog.
Here’s the full menu. I’m definitely swinging by.
