Today my main man and I took a trip out to Pasadena just for The Slaw Dogs Cafe.
So I heard about this cafe during my week of anti-biotic induced slumber. In between long bouts of sleeping I would listen to Outrageous Food, which is where I heard about this crazy deep fried food that I just needed to experience.
Check out the video segment here: Slaw Dogs Video
We shared a Holy Roller: Vienna Beef wrapped in Bacon, Parmesan, with Ketchup and Mustard. If we go to The Slaw Dogs Cafe again, although I want to try the rest of the dogs on the menu, this would be one I would order again.
We shared the TNT, and I ended up eating my half, as well as half of my other's half. My biggest disappointment came with the tnt, we got it without the fried egg, and had the quesdilla deep fried. So the tnt has, vienna beef hot dog, beer chili, grilled onions, french fries, cheddar cheese and pastrami. I hit a lot of pastrami, and it was so hot compared to everything else inside the tnt wrap that I ended up pulling the pastrami out after burning my mouth for the third time after the rest of the tnt was cold. My first bite also happened to be a really fatty piece of pastrami and that texture just turned me off right at the bat. All the flavour really blended together for me and on that note made it rather bland. Definitely needed more cheddar, especially if it had been a sharp cheddar I think it could have made the whole thing pop. I personally wouldn't recommend this dog.
We shared the truffle, Parmesan, garlic fries. I personally like my food when it come with cheese, for the cheese to be melted regardless of the type of cheese, but the fries where nice and hot (temperature) not really sure where the truffle came in.... I couldn't taste it.
Although, this is the first time I have had ghost chilies, I must admit I was really not impressed with the Hulk. This signature hot dog, has ghost chilies, habernaros, grilled jalapenos, chipotle mayo, bacon, and pepperjack cheese, and dressed with shiracha. I blew my nose once, and I do have a sinus infection sooooooo it's hard for me to say if this was spicy or not. Had a unique flavour. I pretty much had this entire bad boy to myself.
Pay attention to the menu when you order here, we spent a little under $35.00 We didn't realize that we should have made the meals combos or at least one combo, because if you purchase a soda without making it a combo you're actually losing out in the long run. A combo with a drink, and side ends up being a dollar more than if you order a dog, and a drink. The staff don't remind you of that here like at other restaurants. Personally, I don't really feel like we needed an additional side to this monster meal, but hey at that price, you may as well take it!
Check out the Slaw Dog Menu and tell me, what dog would you have gone for?
Where we parked for Slaw dogs there was the cutest little cupcake shop, so you can only guess I knew exactly where we were going for dessert. Polkatots cupcakes!
I got the Red Diva, a Dalmation, and a Lemonade, and my man got the cookie monster. The Red Diva, I think was the best, and was red velvet with cream cheese frosting, the Dalmation was a marble cake like cupcake with butter cream frosting, and the lemonade was a lemon cupcake with lemon frosting. I think the cookie monster was a chocolate cupcake with cookie crumbs and a cream frosting.
Usually I'm a real cheap ass, so to spend $3.00 a cup cake nearly gave me a heart attack, but let me tell you these were some of the best cup cakes I have ever had in my life. Worth every single cent. If you have a chance go check this place out! I should have held out and hand a mini hissy fit and spent the $33.00 and gotten an entire doze. (You get a little price break at a dozen LOL)
I later went and bought some general store bought red velvet cupcakes, and was so very disappointed, even though I got eight red velvet cupcakes for half the price of the four you see above you, they weren't even close to holding a candle to these Polkatots
Honestly, I may just blow every single yolo meal for the rest of my life cramming these delicious cupcakes down my gullet. Check out there awesome flavour combos here!
Hungry yet?
