"Monster Dogs, our favorite in Seattle, grills your choice of beef hotlink, beef Polish sausage, or veggie dog, offering an array of condiments for embellishment. Try the cream cheese dog plain first, but we think barbecue sauce and hot mustard make for a perfect sweet-and-hot combo."

They coat their over-sized buns with a nice base of cream cheese and then top their dogs with grilled onions for a unique and unforgettable flavor combination, one that, as you get used to it, will dare you to drop your usual condiments on top."

"Monster Dogs offered the spiciest dog I tested, though I would imagine that topping the dog with some cream cheese would help. Although the taste was overpowered by the spice, the dog had a full-bodied flavor."
