I have had my share of dogs in Chicago. I like them in general. It is unique. Please tell me why you boil or steam a 1/4 lb. dog? I think Superdawg was the best I had, but it still kept me asking. Why not put it on the flat top?0

All of the strong opinions in this thread are hilarious. Over on the West Coast we get our dogs from the carts selling Tijuana street dogs outside the the arena/stadium. Some day I will get a proper Chicago dog and a NY slice. Never had those and I want to be able to argue with people about the best ones.1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th

Shut up and just get the crab at Swan's. It is better than the Chicago dog or the NY slice. I told my brother (longtime SF resident) that the crab there might even be better than Maine lobster. Do not even get me started on Tomales Bay oysters.0 -
Chicago Dog: Mustard, Relish, Onions, Dill Pickle spear, tomato wedges, sport peppers and celery salt on a poppy seed bun.
Maxwell Street, usually a polish sausage, but also can be hot dog: Mustard, sport peppers and grilled onions.

I have some strong opinions on pizza (maybe not as strong as those no ketchup folks from the Midwest). See the pizza thread.0 -

I guess it is really called the "Swan." There is a great Bourdain episode on it. Back on topic, I cannot say I ever had a great hot dog out west.
