In case you haven’t heard, there is a new way to eat hot dogs in Roseville. Umai Savory Hot Dogs has taken the art of eating dogs to a whole new level. Opened this past summer, Umai offers a startling assortment of toppings and specialty hot dogs to make the most tainted hot dog connoisseur smile.

For instance, who could possibly resist something called “Mexicali Mayhem” or “Honolulu Bang Bang?” and for the true artist among us, diners can invent their own specialty dog, kind of like “Build-a-Bear” for foodies. Even normal folks could be enticed with toppings like maple bacon chips, roasted seaweed and kimchi.

Louie Tran, the CEO of Umai, is ready to expand into a location in Natomas. Looking at a February opening, his new branch will fill the space left open by a fish and chips joint, right next door to Beach Hut Deli at 3620 N. Freeway Blvd.

According to information gleaned from the company’s website, this new venture is only the beginning for Umai. They are also considering opening more stores in downtown Sacramento and close to Arden Fair.
