Westside Venues to Serve Playful Bites and Seasonal Sips For the Holiday Weekend
A bold new offering is making its debut at Something About Her just in time for peak summer appetites. Starting Saturday, July 5, the West Hollywood sandwich shop will serve its first-ever limited-edition hot dog, dubbed “The Richard.”
Available only through July, The Richard features an all-beef frank layered into a freshly baked pull-apart bun, then topped with house-made ketchup, Dijon mustard, and crispy onions, a nostalgic yet elevated twist on the classic American staple.
Billed by the shop as “big” and “bold,” The Richard adds a playful and indulgent bite to the café’s typically romantic, fairy-tale-inspired menu.
The sandwich shop, co-founded by Vanderpump Rules stars Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney, continues to draw attention for its cheeky branding and rotating seasonal items.
Customers can enjoy The Richard beginning Saturday, July 5, for a limited time while supplies last.
