Chef John Taus' favorite food? Hot dogs. He celebrated the tubesteak last summer with the krauted-up veal dogs he and Fork meatman Andrew Wood put out at the Down the Shore at Zahav event, and now he's doing even more inspired wiener work in his current post at The Corner (102 S. 13th St.). Taus' seafood hot dog, a highlight of his new summer menu, starts with a purée of scallops, shrimp and whatever catch of the day he's working with (fluke, skate, etc.), plus sherry vinegar, cream, thyme, lemon zest and little bit of chili flake. He herbs that mixture up with scallion, chive and parsley, whips egg white in for texture (more snap than you'd think) and twists the seafaring franks into shape with plastic wrap, which allows them to be easily poached off. A quick visit to the griddle for crisping, a bun slather of avocado mayo and sides of fingerling chips and classic slaw bring this dogs-day-of-summer plate home. Eat this immediately!
