PRLog -- Po Dog, a gourmet-chic wiener eatery known for unique creations and fresh toppings, announced plans to open a second location today. The Seattle based restaurant will now have a home in the University District (4736 University Way NE). Laura Olson, 26, founder of Po Dog on Capitol Hill announced today plans to open the second location. Po Dog is a unique Gourmet Hot Dog restaurant known for their over the top creations. These include a deep fried wasabi egg-roll dog, a homemade macaroni & Cheese dog and the deep fried danger dog (a hot dog wrapped in pepper bacon, deep fried, covered in chili sauce and sauteed onions). All offerings available in 100% all beef, Field Roast Veggie, or a rotating selection of locally made sausages. The new location will open mid-April on "the Ave" in the University District. Po Dog will carve out a 635 sqft space adjacent to Rudy's barbershop. When asked why her restaurants are in such small storefronts (the Capitol Hill location is just over 900 sqft) Olson had this to say with a grin; "Our wieners just fit better in tight spaces". Besides being know for her delicious dogs, Po Dog has received much admiration for their tongue and cheek advertising. There seems to be an endless supply of wiener jokes constantly being exchange via Twitter between Ms. Olson and her cult following. "We are lucky to have such a wonderful and diverse clientele which has made Po Dog fun and exciting not only for our customers but for all of us working here" Po Dog University District will feature her signature 12 dogs as well as a monthly rotating special. The recent addition of Uli's famous sausages to Po Dogs' menu has added a new dimension to their irresistible offerings. So set your calendar to grab a cold beer and hot dog at Po Dog!
Founded in 2009 by then 25 year-old Laura Olson, Seattle, WA -based Po Dog is encased meats answer to the gourmet burger joint, offering local fresh ingredients, a stunning-modern decor and an unconventional original approach to the all American favorite.
