Discover CityViewNC.com's fresh updated look! | 27 The Classic Corn Dog I go weak in the knees over a good corn dog. I like my corn dog lighter on the batter, really crispy and fresh out of the fryer. If it's so hot that it burns the roof of my mouth, all the better. If it's made with a really good hot dog, such as a Sabrett or Nathan's, I am in heaven. e key to finding the perfect corn dog is to look for the food vendor with made-from-scratch, hand-dipped, corn- battered hot dogs. ose are the BEST! ere are few things better than a hand- made, freshly battered, deep-fried corn dog served piping hot. Slather it up with mustard or dip it in ketchup; either way it is going to be delicious. Funnel Cake It goes without saying that a festival cannot be a festival without funnel cake. It's a signature treat. Who doesn't love that fried doughy edible perfection dusted heavily with powdered sugar? e best thing about a funnel cake is that it's big enough to share. Take a couple of bites, share the rest with someone you love and move on to another delicious Dogwood Festival goodie. Deep-Fried Oreos I once was skeptical about eating deep-fried Oreos. Chocolate wafers filled with sweet cream filling, battered, deep-fried, then served as a gooey hot mess. Could this really be good? Heck yeah!!! e only thing that could make this fried indulgence any better is if it was topped with homemade so- serve ice cream. Mmm. Just think. A deep-fried Oreo sundae. Doesn't that sound fantastic? I think it would be brilliant to put the deep-fried Oreos vendor and the so-serve ice-cream vendor side-by-side so I could create this experience for myself.
