Apparently I do have a blog, but for the last two months or so, I've malingered. I'll try to be better.
The two beautiful hot dogs above are from Wayne's Chicago Red Hots, recently-ish opened on MLK here in Portland. Those dogs are the real thing: Vienna Beef hot dogs with the full complement of authentic Chicago goodies including pickle, tomato, onion, weird green relish, mustard and celery salt, all on the correct poppyseed bun. After several failed attempts to get a certain stepdaughter to bring Vienna Beef dogs back from Chicago, I've finally found a place to eat them.
Wayne's not only does the hot dogs properly, but they have a big screen tv on which to display Cubs' games while stuffing them down. In future visits, I'm going to be scouting for Chicago natives in hopes of learning how to eat the damn things without getting onions all over my shirt. I think there must be some secret for the angle of attack . . .

I've seen that place a few times... well, a few hundred times on the way to work. Will have to give it a shot.
Sounds yummy. Never thought of adding a pickle to the hot dog. Didn't realize you had a blog, either. I'm adding a link.
Yummy those look like some great hot dogs!
What would it take for these guys to start a happy hour!? The people of Portland would love to find this one late night on their happy hour app: http://www.gotime.com/mobile. If you haven't checked it out yet, please do!
