Puka Dogs has been on national television and newspapers around the country. Does it live up to the hype? I decided to try it and find out!
Basically a "puka dog" is a hot dog bun with a whole punched through the middle, grilled on the inside, then stuck on a hot dog and covered with relish.
The toasting part adds a different, exciting dimension to the hot dog bun. And the relish isn't just *ordinary* relish: It comes in exciting flavors like mango and lilikoi, and even the mayo is flavored with real tropical fruit flavors.
Unfortunately, the experience is slightly dampened when you realize how *expensive* a puka dog is (running $6 now). Add a drink and tips for the friendly teen servers, and you've got a pricy hot dog.
However, it doesn't hurt to try and yes, it *is* good!
