Hot Dog Stands
- Gene & Jude's Red Hot Stand
- Gene & Jude's...what to say...where to begin. This is heaven. This is it! I found it! It's A) Cheap as fucking dirt. Two can easily eat here for under $10. It's B) Fucking orgasmically delicious. I don't normally like soft fries, but these are so gooooooooooood! They're hand cut and this place is famous for putting them on top of your 100% delicious beef hot dog. And C) They have generic orange and grape "drink", which is perfect against those spicy sport peppers! My only warning here is don't you dare ask for ketchup because you'll get yelled at (and rightly so). 2720 River Road, River Grove IL 60171 (708) 452-7634
- Hot Doug's
- Technically a "gourmet sausage shop", Hot Doug's is located in Logan Square and offers a multitude of encased meat treats. Though Doug does serve a regular Chicago style dog along with some other classic staples like bratwurst and Polish sausage, the real reason to go is for sandwiches like the Blue Cheese Pork Sausage with Creamy Pear Sauce and Smoked Almonds or the Roasted Artichoke Chicken Sausage with Artichoke Tzatziki, Kalamata Olives and Feta Cheese. I would, however, skip the duck fat fries because they didn't taste any better to me than the regular ones and cost twice as much. 3324 N. California, Chicago IL 60618 (773) 279-9550
