Best hot dog place in Chicago

[SilenceS]

It’s good but you could probably make it just as good yourself.

I guarantee you that if you made Gumbo it would suck

 

[SilenceS]

I've never had good gumbo, its one of those things I figure I'll try if I ever get to NO.

What some people call Gumbo up North is blasphemy.

Meh, your approval isn’t something I would need anyway. I’ve been to New Orleans a few times. My gumbo is on par with the restaurants down there. No need to try to fool yourself that only people from there can make it.

I put Mayo on my hot dogs but dont worry only Blue Plate.

Also, Nola fucks Chicago in food. Bozos

NOLA has great food, but It always amazes me how they live past 35 down there. Everything they eat starts with 2 sticks of butter

NOLA has great food, but not as diverse as NYC, CHI, LA, SF in ethnic options. Although I haven't been there in awhile.

Philly is a very underrated food city imo. Houston too.

Gumbo made by @SilenceS will always be better to me than anything I'd make.

My brane already thinks so, for one.

But more importantly:

-Didn't need to clean my kitchen, he did.
- I didn't need to source nor purchase any of the ingredients.
- None of my time was spent cleaning nor prepping produce/protein.
- I didn't need to clean up after prepping the ingredients
- All the time spent cooking the food happened before I arrived
- At no point do I need to worry about the dishes

For you chefs/restaurant people, some of us do the Math on all the shit you do that we're paying for lol.

I always ended up at the place by the Western Ave blue line stop on my way back drunk from the Map Room.
The Polish sausage comes with fries. I said I didn't want the fries and the guy said I was getting the goddamn fries or he was gonna kick my ass. The fries were pretty good.

I had a friend when I was a kid who lived in Worth and took me to Mickey's (on 111th). I was probably 10 or 11. I ordered a hot dog with just ketchup, and the guy behind the counter looked at me (a kid, mind you) deadly serious and just says, "we don't do that here." I've heard they've gotten mellower since then, lol.

And you won’t have to throw a pot at ya prep cooks for sucking the life out of you with mind numbing questions

Mickey's serves frozen french fries. They don't get a fucking opinion on anything. Posers

You shouldn’t be eating fried food or anything not liquified. No wants to see you gum down a dog and fries. I’ve seen it before and it’s disgusting

I used to think you were the most sensible of all the moderators, if that's even possible. I'm changing my mind.

Frozen french fries are never acceptable and should not be eaten or blended or whatever sick shit happens in your root cellar with your "friends".

 

[JimAKABlkhwks918]

So you’ve never actually been to and eaten Portillos. Got it

Cant afford it...got burned on the lease on that grocery getter...

Dicklick, I live in Chicago for 25 years and went to Hot Dog stands you never even heard about

That's code for some shit no one wants to hear about, Bob....

How many Hot Dog stands have you worked in, besides your McDonalds job?

 

[Hawkeye OG]

When I was young I went to see my friend in Cedar Rapids.
We went to the food court at the mall and he insisted I get a taco dog.
It was a hotdog with fritos and salsa on it.
That's an ethnic meal in Iowa. That and taco pizza.

Don’t forget about tenderloins

I'm fairly 100% certain that literally no one considers McDonald's to be a "Hot Dog stand" or did they in the past acturally sell hot dogs because I have literally never seen a hot dog on any McDonald's menu board did you mean Sonics Drive in because they have hot dogs or maybe Hardies or Darey Queens? Not McDonald's at least in my whole entire life time.

He's definitely talking about "eating" at a glory hole, right?

I was digging in the freezer and found a jumbo pack of Vienna Beef jalapeño cheddar dogs!
