Corn dogs are an iconic American snack, popular both at fairgrounds and cafes alike.
These tasty bites are coated in batter and deep fried until golden-brown for optimal results. Enjoy with some ketchup or mustard for dipping!
New York offers several food trucks offering this popular street food. Some specialize in Korean-style corn dogs while others provide creative variations on this classic American snack.

The BoonSeek
One of the most beloved snacks in America is a deep-fried corn dog, offering satisfying yet simple pleasure for years.
One Pittsburgh food truck has taken this American staple and given it an exciting twist. Boonseek opened last October, serving Korean-style corn dogs — also called “korndogs” — along with veggie rolls and dumplings among other items.
Korn dogs are an interesting twist on traditional hotdogs; coated in sugar after being deep-fried to give it that sweet-and-savory combination without all of the excess grease.
The BoonSeek can be found throughout Pittsburgh and often stops by Pitt’s campus. Visit their Instagram for weekly schedules and menu offerings.
