In the Mood for a Good Wiener?

Then check out The Wiener and Still Champion, in Evanston. www.wienerandstillchampion.com

 We met one of my husband's old school chums and son for lunch in this very small dive that is home of the Triple Undisputed, a full 3 lb burger. We did not attempt that challenge but instead went the fried food route.

We started with the Giardinara Cheese fries and Deep Fried Pickle Chips.

Giardinara Cheese Fries

Deep Fried Pickle Chips

 The Giardinara Cheese Fries were very good, spicy but not to hot (for me any way,and I am not that tolerant in the heat department). The fries are very good and and fresh cut. They also have the option of Merkt's Cheddar Cheese Sauce. They also have several unique dipping sauces they make fresh daily and a sauce of the week. The Pickle Chips were great.  Our friend's son had the Chicken Nuggets. He said they were very good, they looked very crispy. 

But the star of the lunch was the Country Fried Bacon- bacon that is breaded and deep fried! My husband said it was outstanding.

 For entrees my husband had the Dippin Dog Deluxe- 2 dippin dogs (a dippin dog is an all beef hot dog hand dipped in cornmeal batter) smothered in homemade chili, which has a very unique and good flavor, topped with Merkt's Cheddar Cheese.

His friend had the Chili Cheese Dog and thought the chili was really interesting, there is cinnamon and cumin in it. A very distinct flavor.

I had the turkey burger, it was good, not great. They use a frozen turkey patty, and I had grilled onions and tomato with garlic ailoi. The sauces are very good.

This was another unique DDD place but has not aired yet. If your in their area grab a dog!
