Chicago's Doghouse
Included In
Whether you like your hot dogs "dragged through the garden" or showered in chili and cheese, Chicago's Doghouse is a great spot for all things sausage. Aside from standard hot dog topping combinations, this fast-casual spot in Lincoln Park has a massive menu with inventive options like the Obama Dog topped with zippy pineapple salsa and teriyaki sauce. Their gourmet sausages section reads like the cast list of Jumanji—there’s a rattlesnake and rabbit one topped with sweet BBQ sauce and pungent giardiniera. It’s a tiny place with only a couple of tables, but their counter is usually open if you need a spot to quickly eat a tasty duck brandy sausage with caramelized onions.
