Stuff Your Face at fRedhots and Fries
Anyone who enjoys a good hot dog in Chicago has heard of Hot Doug's. But Doug is not the only friendly guy in the Chicago area that serves up great and unusual fast food.
Meet Fred, owner of fRedhots and Fries in Glenview. He's not too hard to identify. When you step inside the restaurant, you'll notice his face is just about everywhere: the sign, the menus, the t-shirts. Most likely, you'll find Fred either behind the counter taking your order or talking with diners looking for feedback.
Fred's menu offers items you'd expect to see in any Chicago hot-dog joint: jumbo dogs, footlongs, Polish sausages, burgers, and Italian beefs. But you'll also notice a few things you may never have imagined: chicken sausage, buffalo, rabbit, elk, alligator' even a smoked salmon hot dog?! And why have regular fries when you can have Belgian 'frites' with your choice of dipping sauces like garlic, pesto, or aioli. I especially liked the chipotle sauce. Specials rotate daily and can feature anything from a healthy zucchini burger to a carnivore's delight: a '-pound foot-long Chicago-style hot dog.
These dynamic dogs will have you returning for more and making Fred a familiar face.
