Man, I love Chicago-style hot dogs.  This past winter my roommate Randy introduced me to an old, classic, hole-in-the-wall, family-run hot dog joint here in Arlington Hts. called Peep’s.  Thank you, Randy!!!  This is my new favorite hot dog joint (and best friend).

A reviewer on Yelp wrote this about Peep’s:  “Peep’s has been kicking 10 kinds of ass since I remember first going there in the 70’s when it was a little trailer on the corner.”

Here’s a brief photo essay on Peep’s.

Below Randy grabs his hot dog.  I’ve never seen him happier, ever.

I’ve never been happier.  This is the look of:  “My life suddenly has meaning (and taste).”

In case you were wondering what goes on a Chicago-style hot dog, here’s your answer.

The best bar stool.  I could sit there forever.

Notice that the sign says “BURRITOS ARE BACK.”  I don’t know where they went, but who cares.  The point is, they’re back!
