Mei Wang is giving Nauti Dogs a run for its glizzies. After directing seasons four and five of the \u201cSiesta Key\u201d reality show, she launched Weenies N\u2019 Bikinis<\/a> in March.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love food, and I love boating, and I thought, \u2018Wouldn\u2019t it be so cool if a little boat floated around serving hot dogs just like a hot dog cart, but in the water?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

The boat, run by Wang and her bikini-clad crew, has the hot dog and mustard theme with a self-proclaimed aesthetic of \u201cBay Watch\u201d meets Hulk Hogan.<\/p>\n

The bikini wearers grill Nathan\u2019s all-beef hot dogs, topped with Weenies N\u2019 Bikinis brand seasoning, which Wang is planning to sell soon.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe seasoning is the best part,\u201d Jill, one of the bikini-wearing hot dog slingers, told CL. \u201cI personally have never been a big hot dog fan, but these I can eat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wang has high hopes for the business. She wants to expand the Weenies fleet, get the bikini girls their own TV show, and maybe start a pizza boat.<\/p>\n
