Kitchen: Japadog

Do you dream of how furikake could be incorporated into every meal?

There is a place in Canada that combines two of my favorite foods- the all American hot dog with a dish dash of Japanese details. Ballpark meets what a Japanese night market could be. Japanese food tends to be several small dishes delicately prepared and allotting with a few bites each. Americans don't seem to appreciate this as much. We want to be filled, with portions worthy of the cost. I'm surprised I haven't seen something like this sooner.

Unfortunately, I am no longer within driving distance of Canada and cannot experience the place firsthand. Perhaps it is better this way. Not knowing and living in ignorant bliss completely satisfied with the homemade imitation.
