| - It was that weird time of day around 3p, where I haven't eaten yet, but I didn't want to eat too much because of dinner. So I thought I would get a hot dog. I went to Steak and Shake, I saw that they had a combo, Chicago style hot dog, french fries and drink for $5. You can't beat that price. So I ordered, it's #16- if you need to get a quick fix.
It was definitely good, they cut the hot dog in half longways, grill it on the flat top, top it with all the appropriate fixin's for a Chicago dog. My french fries were hot, but shoestring french fries get cold really fast, so they had already been under the heat lamp a few minutes, then by the couple of minutes to park the car- not the best. So my french fry barometer registered a "a nice tone of meh"
The hot dog bun was too large and poofy, so way too much bread and it was sopping wet from pickle juice, so soggy bread is a turn off, and I don't mean damp either. it was smushed wet like a sponge. Yeah, smushed. Also it wasn't a poppy seed bun for the sticklers. Oh, and another thing, they grilled the bun, that was a nice touch.. My hot dog was made with care, not slapped together..
So, this being said, for five bucks and a quick dog, yes I will return.
