Chi-Dog-O

I am smacking myself for not trying Chi-Dog-O by U street a little sooner. If you like your hotdogs topped with sliced tomatoes, onions, pickled jalepenos, mustard, and/or relish this is the spot. I had the house veggie dog with the aforementioned fixings (hold the celery salt) and it was amazing. The bun is perfect and is dusted with poppy seeds. For a moment, I could have been walking on State St. under some El bridge. People eyed my dog with what must have been envy. Not bad for under $4. For adventurous eaters, there is a Superior Street challenge where you can try to tuck in an ungodly amount of hot dog and Italian beef under 8 minutes. Maybe next time.
