My favorite brand of hot dogs is Sahlen's out of Buffalo, my hometown. They're the best when you grill the hell out of 'em! Here's some examples of some better local joints in the Buffalo area:
i go to the ted's out here in tempe - so good and cooked on an open flame - onion rings are great too ....... plus I can douse my upstate NY desires for loganberry and white hots
As for your list:
- I tried an Oki dog but it was in Seattle; I'm guessing it's a similar concept, a hot dog with an Asian West Coast twist. Mine had avocado, mayo, seaweed, and some kind of sushi sauce. Of course, I could be all wrong and what I had is nothing like the Oki dog, so I will have to try Oki dog when I get out to L.A. again (hopefully soon!)
An Oki dog consists of two franks, a mound of grilled pastrami, chili, cheese and onions... all wrapped in a giant flour tortilla. You have to try one next time, just to say you did.
Oki Dog is in West Hollywood. Treat yourself next time you're in L.A. No waiting in line like at Pink's.

Seattle has its own hot dog variation - it features a grilled dog on a toasted bun with cream cheese, grilled onions, jalapenos, sauerkraut, mustard, and Siriracha sauce.
I eat them because I like them. The right way to eat them is with mustard, anything else is just wrong. I know they're not a health food, so I eat them just a few times a year. In fact, today's lunch will be hot dogs and beer while watching a baseball game.
I kind of hate hot dogs too, especially after dealing with food poisoning a few times. I will say that sometimes the television tempts me, but I usually stay away.
