The Chicago Hot Dog






Hot dogs, from a stand!
Ah, just the best in Chicagoland.
Their taste so exquisite!
I want to go back for a visit.
I don't know the hot dog magic,
And I do declare it is so tragic.
The smell of Lake Michigan was the best!
But no way can I pass, the  Chicago hot dog taste test!

Agree, gastronomically, a delight. Not kidding about those in Chicago. There's a trick to how they do that. Plus served with hot tamales that are wrapped in special paper. Help..am drooling. Pangie xxx. Thanks.
