Fritzi Dog will open in downtown, with carrot dogs

Downtown dwellers need to prepare for the carrot dog.

Neal Fraser, who serves a sous-vide whole carrot on a bun at his hot dog stand at the Original Farmers Market, is bringing his dogs and carrots downtown.

Fraser will open a location of Fritzi Dog at Vibiana, just a stone’s throw from his other restaurant, Redbird, on Monday.

He’ll be serving hot dogs Monday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. You can expect the full Fritzi Dog menu, along with a new dog called the Smoky Snappy. It’s a beef and pork dog with snap, and a little smoke.

And if you’re into the idea of carrot dogs, you can order them topped with crispy Brussels sprouts, warm sauerkraut, parsley gremolata, cheese and super spicy mustard — not all on the same dog. Although if you really want to, go right ahead.

If you buy any dog and drink, an order of tots or fries is free.
