Nice slice you're serving up here! MC5, X, the Simon demo and Hollies are nice and raw! The mix as a whole is primo. You have something special here.

Is that some kind of regional thing? I've never seen anyone eat a hotdog like that: mustard, tomato, chopped onions dill pickle, sweet pickle, did I miss anything? I can't wait to try it.

Grumpies - Yes. It's a Chicago-style dog and it's delicious! You need celery salt and a couple small serrano hot peppers. Best served on a poppy seed bun.
