I think I am the only person not on facebook so it never occurred to me to check there for an update! I haven't been to Gene and Judes for a hot dog but will totally go and give them some support the next time I am in Chicagoland. You just can't get a good Chicago style hot dog in San Francisco. You might find Vienna Beef but the bun is never right. I've given up and now will only eat them in their native land. Not to hijack my own thread to go into the world of hot dogs but here is a recent link about Gene and Judes. http://chicago.seriouseats.com/2013/04/after-flood-gene-judes-rebuilding.html?ref=title Anyway, glad to hear that Hala Kahiki has survived. We can't afford to loose anymore classic tiki joints. Denise
