The Best Hot Dog in Palos: You Decide

Help us decide who makes the best hot dog in the Palos area.

 

It’s time for another Chowdown Showdown, our new weekly feature that will not only give you great ideas on where to eat, but will allow you to tell everyone why your favorite restaurant is the best. 

The Chowdown Showdown pits Palos, Evergreen Park and Oak Lawn restaurants against each other to decide who makes a particular dish best. Before the competition starts, we need your ideas on who our Oak Lawn representative should be.

I have to clarify why a little more: has the guts that everyone grew to love, my father is a tough critic when it comes to dogs and he loves them so much more than those at Wojos, Jrs, etc. GOTTA GET EM!

Thanks for the suggestions Jackie. I am a big fan of their subs, but the idea of the guts on a hot dog is intriguing.
