Japadog on Burrard & Smithe has been around for a few years now, and it is probably the only hot dog vendor that I get street hot dogs from in Vancouver.
Although there were a few different types of hot dogs there, I’ve always stuck with the Terimayo and the Oroshi hot dogs there. It’s not that I didn’t want to try anything else, it was just that it’s hard not to order what you already know its good.
Oroshi ($4.75) was the first ever hot dog I got at Japadog. It was pork bratwurst, with grated daikon (radish), green onions and special sauce. I liked it a lot. The bratwurst was juicy, and the daikon was there to sort of cut through the grease from the bratwurst. It was very different from a traditional hot dog, but very good.
I tried the Terimayo ($4.75) later on and I remember liking it more than I thought I would. It had sautéed onions, nori seaweed flakes, and teriyaki sauce. I loved the sautéed onions, and I loved the seaweed flakes. Everything just worked together, even better with wasabi mayo on top. It is my favorite at Japadog.
This place is always consistent, even with different chefs behind the grill. If you’re a Vancouverite and has never been here, you are definitely missing out big time.
