Braeburn Square development at Wichita State will add its seventh restaurant on Friday
Yet another new restaurant will open at Wichita State University’s Braeburn Square this week, bringing the development’s total number of eateries to seven.
The long awaited Two Hands Corn Dogs, which specializes in Korean-style corn dogs and also serves fries, elote, slushes and boba tea, officially opens on Friday.
Between noon and 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, the restaurant at 4510 E. 19th St., suite 106, will let diners each try a corn dog for free.
Franchisee Lexi Le announced more than a year ago plans to bring a Two Hands to Wichita. The chain is based in Los Angeles but has spread across the country.
The star of the Two Hands menu is the trendy Korean corn dog, which is different from a typical corn dog in that its filled with either a hot dog or a hunk of melty mozzarella cheese or a mixture of both and then is coated with a rice flour batter — as opposed to a standard corn dog’s cornmeal better — and then deep fried. The finished product comes with toppings like crushed up Hot Cheetos, potato cubes, crispy rice puffs and more. (Two Hands also has one cornmeal-battered corn dog on its menu.)
Wichita’s other Korean hot dog vendor — Mochinut, which opened last November at 343 S. Greenwich — also serves doughnuts. Two Hands doesn’t and instead offers fries with kimchi seasoning; “Dirty Fries,” which are deep fried potato puffs with sauce and Cheetos powder; and elote, which at Two Hands is corn on the cob slathered with sauce and seasoning.

People can order food from Two Hands online and pick it up at the restaurant, but there’s no seating inside. Customers will be able to take Two Hands food into other Braeburn Square restaurants as long as they buy a drink or another food item at that restaurant.
Two Hands’ Friday hours will be noon to 7 p.m. After that, it will be open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.
Two Hands joins other longtime and new restaurants at Braeburn Square, which opened in 2018 on WSU’s Innovation Campus near 21st and Oliver. They are Fuzzys Tacos Shop, Starbucks, Sesame Mediterranean Kitchen, Jersey Mike’s Subs and Social Tap, a bar that features two food concepts: Sungrano Pizza and Wheatly’s Burgers.
