Hard to tell if this is a good idea or hipster hell

Brunch Dog: pork loin breakfast sausage with corncob-smoked bacon, fried egg, and maple mayo ($8.50). Herby sausage, lingering smoke, and maple. The delicious mess of the fried egg makes for a knife-and-fork meal.
Other Dogs:
1. Argentina: grilled Argentine sausage and chimichurri on a French roll ($4.50). A decent sausage, a goodish roll, and a thin spread of sour chimichurri add up to adequate.
2. Alligator sausage with Asian chili sauce and caramelized onions ($7.50). With a good sausage and supporting cast of toppings, this dish hits notes of sweet, smoky, spicy, and salty, but it’s grilled so long that it develops a woody crust of char.
3. Jalapeño-bacon sausage with chipotle-cilantro mayo and queso fresco ($5.75). Sizable chunks of bacon and jalapeño in the sausage lend variety to different bites; the mayo and queso enrich the overall flavor.
4. Foie gras and Sauternes duck sausage with truffle aïoli, foie gras mousse, and fleur de sel ($9). A masterpiece that balances the richness of foie and truffles with the bright flavors in the aïoli and the bite of the salt.
This all really sounds like pretentious New York Foodie swill.
