Really long sausages between buns and the search for Hong Kong pizza

We love the nutty promotional gimmicks that a couple of American eateries in Hong Kong have recently come up with
Hong Kong pizza hot dogShakey's gourmet lobster pizza -- is that a 'Hong Kong' topping for you?

Hong Kong pizza hot dog
The world's longest hot dog sausage measures 60 metres in Japan.
The Main St. Deli, long known for being as close to a real New York deli as possible in Hong Kong, is now serving 20 inch hot dogs. Sausages include beef, pork, chicken, and vegetarian, and garnishes include the traditional, mustard, mayo and ketchup, as well as the bordering on sacrilegious -- blue cheese.

Speaking of sacrilegious, Shakey's Pizza is having a competition for Hong Kong-themed pizza toppings. Send your selections to info@shakeys-pizza.com.hk for a chance to win HK$5,000 dining vouchers at the pizza parlor. Ten of the entrants will be selected for a special promotion and the most popular one will be added to Shakey's menu permanently.

We're only slightly worried about the potential entrants -- thousand-year-old-egg-pizza, French toast-style sweet pizza, curry fishball pizza -- and mostly looking forward to finding out what a 'Hong Kong pizza' can be.
