I was browsing through the pictures on my laptop and came across some pictures I took a few months ago while I was in Chicago, IL. I decided to compile a few of them and put it in a blog post. The theme: hot dogs!
Chubby Weiners
Located in Lincoln Square 4652 N Western Ave, Chicago.
America’s Dog
Located inside the food court at Navy Pier and also in a street cart outdoors by the pier.
I realized, the only thing I was missing was… pictures of actual hot dogs!
Before I left Chicago, I did grab a Chicago style hot dog at the airport. A Chicago-style hot dog is composed of a steamed poppy seed hot dog bun, a beef hot dog (often steamed, sometimes boiled) and the following toppings:
- Yellow mustard
- White onions, chopped
- Pickle relish, in a freakish neon green (basically, minced pickles with green sugary syrup)
- Tomatoes, small wedges
- Sport peppers
- Celery salt, a dash
- and a Dill pickle spear.
