It isn't like we have not discussed what union we were and are in numerous times in numerous threads. Nothing nefarious here.

Yeah, that was a cheap shot. Sorry. I don't wish private chat with @Angry Boomer on anyone.

I never said I had a private chat with anyone...You like to invent things. I knew a longtime ago that you were a failed electrician

Hot dog stands of my youth:
Wolfy's
Fluky's
Hot Dog Island
Gene & Judes (bring your own ketchup for the fries)
Hot Doug's (post-youth)
Currently: Top Dog (in Berkeley), and once every couple years when I'm back in the Chi, the mighty Portillo's.

Not a big hot dog person but liked (probably already mentioned) Hot Doug's, Odge's at Damen just south of Chicago ave, and what is now Fat Lou's at Oakley and Chicago ave, just because they were close. I am not worried about being sunbizzed because I live nowhere near there any more.

Seems like it will be blasphemy here, but fresh cut saggy fries are ass...
I can get a good Vienna beef hot dog with the proper fixings at a lot of places, same with a good burger.
The make or break for me is the fries: cooked in fresh oil, just enough to be crisp outside, soft inside, served blazing hot and unsalted ( I add just a touch to taste.)
So many places get it wrong, but I have a mental catalog of places near me that are on target with their fry business.
There's a little dive on Sauk Trail in Richton Park, IL called Athens Gyros that has perfected the fry art...I swear they change the oil out completely with every batch of fries cooked, as I've never had anything but the lightest, perfect fries every time I've eaten there.

Yeah, great place. Real fries and bunch tamales in a corn wrap. Corn silk wrapped tamales are a real indication of old school hot dog stands

Speaking of tamales, there is a tamale sandwich in Chicago called the Mother-In-Law. It's a tamale in a hot dog bun with chili, cheese and onion. The cool places offer this
