Last time I came here it was great but this time they had run out of toppings for the vegan dog so I just got it plain and I was going to add some condiments. The hot dog I got was nearly inedible and not because it was vegan but totally overcooked and dry with an also hard/dry bun. I went to pickup my other food order elsewhere and asked my husband to get this one but I definitely wouldn’t have accepted it had I picked up. The chicken karaage was also a mess fried in dirty oil flecked with black. Absolutely awful.
The hot dogs were decent, but nothing extraordinary. One of them lacked flavor, which might have been due to the bread not being as fluffy or bouncy as expected. The service was okay, though the food took a bit longer to come out than I would have liked.
à essayer absolument! Concept vraiment original et savoureux. Nous avons commandé directement au restaurant mais plusieurs foodtruck sont disponibles dans la ville.
J'ai tellement aimé les japadogs que j'y suis allée 2 fois pendant mon séjour à Vancouver. Évidemment, il faut aimer les mets asiatiques pour apprécier les japadogs. Le service est efficace. Le local est petit, mais chaleureux.
