@supersubsingapore is a new hotdog joint at PLQ that slaps on some pretty radical toppings on the quintessential ol’ hotdog. Grilled capsicums, tomatoes & pickles? Nah, that’s so two thousand and late. How’d you like some spicy chicken bolognese on your hotdog? Or could I interest you in a mushroom ragout hotdog instead? Or perhaps I could tempt you with what I had, the Heavenly Yuzu Crab ($8.80 nett)?⠀

You read that right, you’re not hallucinating it. Shredded crabmeat is mixed in mayonnaise and a slightly sweet yet delightfully refreshing & zesty yuzu dressing. The creamy, subtly sweet, satisfyingly salty and terrifically tangy elevates the salty, briny & subtly sweet crab meat into a perfect symphony of flavours that balance each other out. At the same time, this crabmeat dressed with yuzu mayo is so incredibly light yet satisfying I wished I was eating a dedicated crabmeat roll as opposed to a hotdog topped with this marvellous mixture. It may never happen, but I still hope for a day where @supersubsingapore sells this yuzu crab on its own.

As for the hotdog itself, it’s a standard issue frankfurter. It’s magnificently meaty and joyously bouncy, and the casing snaps satisfyingly with that trademarked snap of a well made ‘dog. Both the sausage and the hotdog roll were grilled perfectly with a lovely char, but they don’t have a prayer of stealing the limelight from the sublime yuzu crab mixture. Protip: mop up any fallen globs of magical yuzu crab with the illegally addictive tortilla chips. Y’know what? Just top them chips with an over abundance of this crabby concoction, and I’d pay top dollar for it.

For slightly under nine buckaronis, there ain’t no hotter dog in town than Super Sub’s sausages. Super Sub is doing a super job of putting the sub in sublime, no cap 🧢.
