Hot Dog Guy

Trying to find a hot dog can in fact prove to be a challenge. If you are near the corner of West Huron and Delaware, you will find a food vendor that has not only a wide selection of foods to grill, but a good cheeseburger.

From Sahlen’s hot dogs to Italian and Polish Sausage, from Cheeseburgers to Sauerkraut and Junkyard dogs; this guy is sure to fill your stomach and not empty your wallet. The cheeseburger is an all ground beef patty topped with a Nacho cheese sauce, on a fresh tasty roll; all for $3.50. If you prefer the hot dogs he sells, he has an amazing special; 2 Sahlen hot dogs and a 12oz can of soda for $4.00. His condiment selection and his topping selection go without compare. For condiments he has mustard, ketchup, relish, diced onions, hot sauce, and JalapeƱo peppers. For toppings he has Sauerkraut, Peppers and Onions, Nacho Cheese Sauce, and Chili Sauce. If you're up for something different, he's got a Black Angus Beef Dog for only $2.50.

The guy is always out there... wind, rain, and the cold, he'll be there for your grilling needs during the right season. You can count on him. He’s fast handling the money and the grilling while cooking up for the next customers in the line. It takes less than a minute for you to get your hot dog. The only problem is finding a garbage can when you’re done and maybe a sitting area. The food isn't fresh since it's a vendor so the patties were frozen and he only has Nacho cheese available. If you're ordering a lot, you'd have to be patient. Other than that, he gets a lot of costumers, especially when it’s sunny and warm outside, and be expected to get served within five minutes. He’s well-respected and customers continue to go back. This is a perfect summer option for a quick and appetizing lunch.

Final Rating: 3.5 out of 5

The hot dog guy is what summer is all about...after visiting today (5/20) he told my friend and I that "as soon as I light up a smoke, I get customers." Keep smoking, man, you will be busy this summer, especially with some of the schleps that I work with!

I think the "ladies" need to clean up after themselves...or just clean up themselves, not sure which.
