Bubbledogs! It's all in the name...

At the moment it seems that restaurants with only two things on the menu are all the rage. A little odd I think, but I suppose that's the point. Bubbledogs is a good example, I mean it really is all in the name (although a little more original than Burger and Lobster). You might call it pretentious or hipster, and well you might be right, but I decided to check this one out myself.

Having only the address I got from google to follow, I headed down Charlotte Street expecting to not be able to miss this champagne bar. I was still thinking this when I walked right passed it. With only a small doorway and a tiny sign, it turns out it's actually quite easy to miss; however once I was inside I found the place quite charming. On the bare brick walls are a variety of framed drawings of sausage dogs, the rest of the room has been left quite simplistic with wooden tables and stools.

On the menu you have the choice of 13 cutely named hotdogs, including 'Mac Daddy' (mac and cheese hotdog), the plain and simple 'Naked Dog' and the American inspired 'Fourth of July.' Having experienced my first Fourth of July over the summer in Williamsburg I went with the latter. I was not disappointed. Serving their creations in American style red baskets with the signature Bubbledogs paper kept up the quirky feel, and the food was pretty good too. Of course the it was served with our tables choice of Champagne, but I left that decision to a friend of mine who has a lot more knowledge of bubbly than myself.

I have to say I really quite enjoyed myself, the food was good, the place itself was charming and the experience was interesting. This is not somewhere I'd go regularly...but a new place to take friends definitely!
