You’re In The Foie Gras Dog House Now
The city of Chicago has fined the first restaurant for violating the recently passed ordinance outlawing foie gras — Hot Doug’s, a hot dog stand. In blatant violation after being warned, Doug Sohn continued to serve a hot dog slathered with the fattened duck-liver delicacy as well as “duck fat fries,” though you can only get those on Friday and Saturday. He got off light. He could have been fined as much as $500 but only had to pay $250, probably because he wasn’t caught selling them, just listing them on the menu with a price. How silly. The only one who should be fined is anyone dumb enough to actually eat a foie gras dog. Yum!

I don’t know about anyone else, but I grew up in Detroit with Coney dogs. They’re definitely the best in my opinion!
