    If it wasn't one of the best places in the US for a hotdog, you'd still go just for the positive nature of Joe. This guy can turn your day around with one hopeful thought and a smile. I ate there several times. Love this place.

    Growing up on the northwest side of Chicago. In the mid 90’s you could still get a hotdog and fry for $.99. That’s not even a dollar. Soda $.50. Whole meal with tax $1.70.
