San Antonio just can't seem to get enough of Spurs newcomer Victor Wembanyama.

Need proof? Downtown hot dog cart El Weinecero recently unveiled a new creation inspired by the No. 1 draft pick: the Wembynaso.

For $25, Wemby fans can gobble down an all-beef frank wrapped with bacon and topped with sautéed onions, crispy fried onions and Gruyere cheese sauce on an 18-inch French baguette.

Those with less of an appetite can grab the 9-inch Wembynaso Jr. for $15.

The Wembynaso is the latest creation inspired by the Spurs rookie. Following the news of his arrival in San Antonio, murals, songs and jerseys have popped up to honor of the French athlete.

El Weinecero is located at 507 E. Houston Street.
