Stopped by Chili Man for lunch earlier this week. Luckily there wasn't that long of a line. After reviewing the menu, I decided on a pimento cheese and chili dog and a southern dog. There is good conversation between Vic and customers in line as the dogs are made.
In no time, the dogs were in my hand. Two dogs and a water for ~$7 isn't bad at all.
The chili has beans and peppers so don't expect "hot dog chili." However, it has a good taste and a nice spice.The pimento cheese helped to cool it down. Very good. I had asked Vic to add the spicy mustard to the southern dog but there was some confusion because I think he added the spicy ketchup. It blended with the chili and almost made a sloppy joe flavor. Not bad but not exactly what I was expecting. I really liked the slaw he uses too.
I'll definitely return to Chili Man next time I'm in the Uptown area for lunch.
