Hot dogs? How about Korean-style corn dogs for 147 Avenue A

Last week we mentioned that a new quick-serve restaurant was in the works for 147 Avenue A between Ninth Street and 10th Street. The work permits listed the business as a "hot dog store." 

Well! That's sorta accurate. Turns out "corn dog store" would have been an even better descriptor.

As Steven points out, there's now a QR code out front ... taking you to the website for Two Hands — "Seoul fresh corn dogs" ...
This looks to be the first NYC location for the expanding company that has franchises in California, Arizona and Nevada.

Here's a look at what to expect with their varieties of corn dogs...
... and here's some fetish promo footage via the Two Hands Instagram account...

      While I agree with you, I have to say the “potato dog” seems interesting!! The other ones? Not so much.

    So I called it correctly when I mentioned last week it may be like the Korean hot dog place on Ludlow which always has lines

    Why does everything have to get "Chef-ed up"?

    I try not to comment on foods I have not tasted and I love Korean food, but this does not look awesome. It looks horribly complicated, over-branded, unnatural, and I am going to guess, overpriced. About as appealing to me as an M&M store in Times Square.

    I love Corn Dogs; I don't have a fetish for them or anything, but one of the things I love about them is their encapsulated form, very tidy to eat, so a messy corn dog is not something I look for, but of course I'll have to check it out once they open and see if they have something I think I can handle.

    Several years ago, it was possible to get a vegan corn dog at a few places in NYC; I really think this would sell if it were available again.

    That's "just like my opinion, man."
