Lonely Planet review for Wiener’s Circle
Both infamous and revered in Chicago, Wiener’s Circle’s charred hot dogs and cheddar fries come with a verbal berating that would make a sailor blush. During the day and on weeknights it’s a normal hot-dog stand – with damn good food (no less than Rachael Ray and Jerry Springer proclaimed them the best hot dogs in town). The foul-mouthed show is on weekend eves, late night, when the nearby bars close. The f-bombs fly, and sometimes racial epithets erupt between the mostly white clientele and the mostly black staff.
