Los Angeles Dog

Los Angeles Dog: Red Cabbage & Scallion Slaw, Kimchi & Sesame Mayo

Based on the now-famous Kogi Dog from the original Kogi food truck in L.A., this hot dog positively explodes with flavors and textures—fiery, tangy, creamy, crisp, nutty. A squirt of Sriracha sauce makes a nice addition.
