We didn't invent the Hot Dog. We Just make them the way they are meant to be made.
Olaf, our founder and director, knows a thing or two about dogs. In fact, he’s been serving the ultimate hot dog sensation to clients across Sydney since 2009.
Born and raised in Germany, chef-trained Olaf understands the importance of serving a hot and perfect dog. In Olaf’s own words:
“It was quite a challenge to set up a catering business in Sydney purely offering hot dogs. Back in 2009, the hot dog had quite a bad reputation in Australia. Sausages were the bland, red-skinned varieties you found at the local supermarket, while toppings were hugely predictable – tomato sauce, mustard or barbecue sauce if you were lucky! - It was a snack to gobble down at a sporting match, not a treat to serve at a function to impress guests.”
Challenges and changes
“It took a lot of hard work to educate customers about the power of a real, original hot dog made with quality ingredients. But, with an eye-catching hot dog cart, customer-focused service, authentic condiments, relishes and top-notch ingredients, it wasn’t long before people were convinced.”
“These days, there are no boundaries in terms of the type and size of functions Yummy Dogs caters for. From art gallery openings to CEO board meetings, movie premieres or serving over thousand hot dogs for a corporate lunch in under 2 hours, we’ve done it all.”
Relishing the difference of Yummy Dogs
“Our customers like the uniqueness and the authenticity of our product - that's what makes Yummy Dogs successful. We didn’t re-invent anything, we just took a product and made it nice, we made it the way it should be. As far as we're aware, we’re still the only hot dog caterer in the country that offers the authentic condiments and relishes, served by vendors just like they are in restaurants and on the streets of New York, Chicago or Toronto.”
“Our clients love the fact that their guests can be creative, get involved and build their own hot dog by helping themselves from our condiment buffet. This puts a fun spin on the usual event catering food.”
What else do we do?
“So, we’ve made good progress over the past years in freeing Australia from ‘bad dogs’ - but it's a big country and we can’t do it alone! That's why we have started to supply other hot dog vendors, sandwich bars, coffee shops, restaurants, hotels and catering businesses with our own range of authentic relish, peppers and pickle products under the brand ‘Relish48’.
“They are not just for Hot Dogs. Our products are enormously versatile, packed with flavour and designed to spice up every kind of food.”
“We ship our goods all over the country to businesses big and small including some well-known food and entertainment outlets.”
