hot dog the next stop on a hot dog tour in Chicago is Lola's Coney Island on Chicago and Grand Avenue, they have been around since 2019 and their founder, Jesse, was born and raised.

He grew up in Detroit. Even though we're in Chicago, of course, we have to show the Motor City some love. You can get Chicago-style hot dogs anywhere in the Windy City, but there aren't many places you can get Detroit-style. We have a couple of coney. dogs, what's a coney dog, you might ask the beef and pork hot dog with mustard, diced yellow onions and track resistance, a beautiful savory chili. The restaurant is named after Jesse's firstborn, Lola, and the food truck is named after her second child, Joey, now that food. the truck goes around, you can see them at festivals before I even take a bite.

I must comment on how beautiful it looks, that yellow mustard shining through the good chili again without ketchup. I'm really excited because I've never had a Detroit-style hot dog. Come on, the dog itself definitely tastes different than all the bee meat and a hot dog because there's also pork and you can definitely taste that, then of course the mustard hits you, but it's that chili that really sets this dog apart. And now that? It's the perfect accompaniment to a hot dog and fries or to my British friends' fries. When Lewis told me we were going to buy coney dogs, I thought of Brooklyn-style sweet Coney Island hot dogs.

What I didn't know was that a Coney Island is a type of restaurant that specializes in coney dogs hot diggity dog ​​hmm, that chili, although a coney dog ​​is very different from a Chicago style hot dog because it has a lot of chili on top, plus mustard and some onions, Should we go to Detroit? For

sausages in the whole world donation from gus we have an extra hot dog for you so they saw us filming here at lola's coney island and asked us if we wanted to try something else on the menu, i thought, well, since we're filming a toy hot dog , today we can also eat a New York-style hot dog, in which they also specialize.

This is an all-beef hot dog with sauerkraut, onion, and spicy mustard that you may remember from our iconic New York City food movie, we had a hot dog in Yorkville. and a New York style hot dog from Lola's Coney Island was absolutely delicious. There is a great complement to this hot dog and all the ingredients blend together perfectly. A great New York style hot dog here in Chicago, we're at Wiener Circle in Lincoln Park, another Chicago institution. This place has a great reputation, especially if you come after hours you will have good entertainment. We are here during noon.

Look at that Chicago-style hotdog. Absolutely incredible, another way of referring to a Chicago-style hot dog. The dog is dragged through the garden. The toppings on a Chicago-style hot dog are a perfect symphony of flavors. Celery salt is like the cherry on top of ice cream. If it's not there, it's not the same.

It has a peculiarity because it is an entirely meat hot dog, but it also contains a little duck fat. It comes on a brioche bun with poppy seeds and all the classic ingredients you'd expect: onion, pickle, gherkin, and of course, mustard. Where else besides Chicago can you get a gourmet style hot dog like this now that's different there was such a snap in that casing they basically combine duck fat and beef and then grill it to perfection before placing it on the brioche bun and cover it with all these delicious ingredients. from the mustard to the homemade relish and onions.

Wow, I have to get another bite. It's absolutely incredible. This is also like a giant hot dog. The duck is a super relaxing place. They obviously have a lot of other things on the menu, but we wanted to try the hot dog. We also have some other things, but that's for off-camera eating. Today is all about the hot dogs, honey.
