We were going to stay out of this "heated" debate (groan), but have not heard anyone mention one of our favorites. Best Kosher. They have a counter attached to their factory on Pershing Road (39th st.) between Halsted and Ashland. They are different than the dogs you get most elsewhere around Chicago, and they are HUGE! We love 'em and it's not just the fact that they are in our 'hood and we have to go past every time we make a trip to our Post Office.

Some of our other favorites are Superdog (the mascot alone makes it worth the visit), Hot Doug's (he cooks the fries in duck fat– rich and yummy), Gene and Jude's (for its proximity to Hala Kahiki), and this Mom-and-Pop place called Nicky's (just 'cause it's on our block... though they do make a mean malted).
