Review: Papaya King Hot Dog Truck

August 1, 2014

When you’ve been running errands on foot for FitBit-verified 5+ miles, your stomach is empty, and all that’s nearby are sit-down restaurants and the usual fast food culprits, seeing a food truck feels a little like this:

That happened to me the other day when I was fortunate enough to stumble across the

Papaya King hot dog truck on 6th Avenue and 21st Street outside of Trader Joe’s where I

was meeting a friend. We were picking up ingredients to make cauliflower crust pizza (it’s amazing), but I was starving.

The Papaya King serves up hot dogs with a delicious smorgasbord of toppings. The toppings were top-quality

with some unexpected options. I chose:

  • Bacon (and I got a whole, thick slice!)
  • Pickled jalapeño peppers
  • Crispy fried onions (alla French’s)
  • Mustard
  • The hot itself dog was juicy and delicious, too. All around goodness. Check them out if you find them!
