Polish Sausage vs Vienna Beef dog
2How was the polish cooked? I like it deep fried.
Not a gene and jude's.

3No Gene & Judes, but then Gene & Judes doesn't serve polish (sausage, not customers).

I don't like to think of my self as an artist so much as someone who stares at empty spaces and imagines s--t.

Re: Polish Sausage vs Vienna Beef dog
8This is in Chicago?
We're doing a quick hit and run this weekend. I may be trying some of this. No. Not good for my coronary heart disease...
...But damn it looks good. I'll go ahead and have small bites.
We also have plans for these guys:

And maybe one of Rick Bayless' joints.

9Xela!
Getting into Frontera is Very Very hard (they never take reservations), but if you can't get in there, go right next door & check out XoCo. You can usually get in without much fuss. It's not as fancy as Frontera, but Bayless himself is usually working the grill at Xoco. (at least he is every weekday during lunch, when I go).
It's his take on Street food, mostly wood-oven fired Tortas. They are absolutely amazing. I just went this past Friday.
You said you were coming up for a 'quick hit', too bad you aren't staying longer, it would be fun to do a meetup @ a range or something.
***Edit****
Hot Dougs is great too, but very long lines. Try the duck-fat fries!

10If you're coming to Chicago, you have to try Portillo's at least once.
And let me tell you somethin' bout the whole "an ant can lift a hundred times its weight" buisness, it's a myth, how much do you think an ant actually weighs--like nothin, what's nothin times a hundred....IT"S NOTHING!
Re: Polish Sausage vs Vienna Beef dog
11Thanks for the heads-up. Yep. My wife found out about Frontera and she had a fit (she's a huge fan). But I think we managed with Topolobampo. I'll keep Xoco in mindPorkroast wrote:Xela!

Thanks for the consideration. It's a quick romantic getaway (she likes Sinatra's songs as well).

14Gene & Jude's has a very easy to follow menu. Perfect for the indecisive.

15It does shock some people that they only have 3 items.

Vienna Beef, simply because any food that can get a Kosher rating (which I believe this does) often, to me, simply tastes better due to better quality ingredients. I'm a fan of pork, don't get me wrong, but Vienna Beef dogs with cheddar sauce and a poppy seed bun just CAN'T be beat!
Re: Polish Sausage vs Vienna Beef dog
19Ok.
I think we're going to try to keep it "simple".
Having a conversation with the wife...I think we've reached a final decision: We're keeping Hot Doug's and Gene & Jude's in our to do list.
It seems the Fox link worked Paladin, nice work sir.
Duck fat fries,
