Usually, on our way out of Chicago, I would see it. A yellow hot dog stand that stood out from the other buildings. After seeing the place on t.v., I decided to give it a try. Jim's Original Hot Dos Stand has been a Chicago tradition for 70 years. They were originally located on Halstead street and later moved to their current location on Union St.Their menu features Polish Sausages, hot dogs, fish, chicken and pork chop sandwiches. All f their sandwiches come with fries. I decided to try the sausage and Rebbel got the hot dog. We got these as soon as we arrived because we had a lot of eating on our schedule.
The sausage is especially made for Jim's with the same blend f spices they have had since the 1940's. It has mustard and grilled spanish onions on top. I founf it to be more peppery tasting than I care I like. Rebbel cot a natural casing hot dog that instead of a nice snap was rubbery. Maybe it was on the grill too long. The fries were good, though. After reading all the positive reviews of this place, I was expecting a bit mre and maybe that is why I found this place disappointing. At least the fries worked out. Jim's original is located at 1250 S Union St in Chicago, Ill. They also have a location at 16 E. 95thSt. You can find the on the web at : http://www.jimsoriginal.com/jimsoriginal/Menu/
