Just a quick post to say that I had lunch at Dawgie Style downtown today. For $5.41 including tax I had a Chicago-style hot dog with mustard, relish, onions, pickle spear, peppers, and tomatoes. The whole thing fell apart as I ate it, and I don’t remember having so much fun making a mess of my food since I was a kid. I scooped it up with my hands and ate it; I believe it’s sacrilege to use a fork to eat a hot dog.
The owners are so nice too. While I was there, the owner noticed a woman who wasn’t eating a hot dog, and asked if she was a vegetarian. When she said she was, he sat down with her and asked what she’d like to see added to the menu, stressing that he wanted to add quality items.
Next time I’ll get the New York style dog with mustard, sauerkraut and red onions. You gotta give this place a try – it’s on Madison between Second and Third, next to the cigar store.
I have a news article to post, and it’s absolutely hilarious, but I’m posting this from my work computer at the city schools, and this article DEFINITELY crosses the boundary of “inappropriate material.” So it will have to wait until this evening when I can post from home or a branch office.
I’m also considering doing F U Friday tomorrow, a concept which has become popular among local bloggers. It will be a one-time only thing, not something I plan on doing every Friday.
All right. Back to work.
