Truly Chicago

This is mostly a «north of the Capitol» type place as it sets up a lot at Viewmont football games and several festivals in cities north of Salt Lake. They do a pretty decent job with the dogs and if this place was around maybe 15 years or so ago before the big explosion of New York dogs that had Hebrew Nationals and Nathan’s in every grocery store, it would be much more awe-​inspiring. Make no mistake, these guys do a really good dog, though they lean more towards the Chicago-​style as far as toppings (obviously, given the name, I guess). The hand-​battered corn dogs were the thing I liked best, even though they got a bit overly greasy. I know you’re throwing in for tons of grease if you go for a dog, but this was excessive, if there is such a thing with deep fried breaded hot dogs.
These are not, however, as good as say Johnnie Beef’s, nor are the they equal to J-Dawg’s Polish sausage (which is possibly an unfair comparison). The dogs are very strikingly like Nathan’s, so it’s a very solid dog and if you run across this stand, the people within are very nice and friendly and it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world for you to drop in and grab a dog (or two), but overall, it’s not the kind of place you would go drive to find… unless you really liked that corn dog batter…
