(NewsCore) - A Manhattan eatery's $69 wiener was declared the world's most expensive hot dog, the New York Daily News reported Saturday.
Restaurant Serendipity 3, which also holds the record for the world's most expensive ice-cream sundae ($1,000) and the largest hot chocolate (four gallons, 15 liters), set its latest record Friday -- National Hot Dog Day.
Trudy Tant, 49, of South Carolina helped cement the record, forking out $69 for the foot-long designer dog.
Guinness World Records official Kimberly Patrick declared the record after watching Tant pay for the frankfurter, which came slathered in truffle oil, truffle butter, duck foie gras, Dijon mustard, Vidalia onions and ketchup on a salted pretzel bed.
"It was great. Great flavor," Tant said, who was approached to be part of the record attempt after wandering past the restaurant Friday.
