Korean food usually looks amazing and constantly smells delicious but eating it isn't as satisfying. I've had the elote and potato corndogs. Potato was super awkward to eat since it's the width of an upper arm but as short as a hand. Felt like I was trying to pelican a corn cob.
Elote was tasty but just the batter. The dog itself was bland and the batter had pulled away from the dog and fried for too long to get that gold color. The inside was super heated hot dog water and salt.
And the sticks they use are like closet rods. The result is a poorly built fantasy that looks good enough to buy and try but it's not good enough to be a repeat customer.
Generally that would be the outer batter is rolled in diced potato for extra goodness and potato-y crisp from the deep fry. They're also often like half meat and half mozzarella sticks inside. If you've never experienced one, highly recommend
I find Korean food, from the videos I watch and this picture, add WAY too much condiments on top.
It's like biting into liquid
Asia be putting America to shame with their kick-ass corn dogs while we still just have the OG and nothing else :(
