HOT DOGS V. TACOS

I wonder if the dog on a stick is crispy

this debate should, at this point, be taco bell vs wienerschnitzel

xxp I am paying less, as well

real talk: there is almost never a reason to order anything but taco supremes from Taco Bell

Dan - I'll let you know in a couple hours.

I have never been to a winerschnitzel! Where are they? I could wear my dirndl and order in German and freak them all out.

my girlfriend makes great potato tacos. She roasts the potatos and we add black beans and cabbage and guac and a hundred other things.

And what's with the gabbneb/banning comparison. Can't a guy quote wikipedia without reading it first?

a good approach at Taco Bell, too

There used to be an utterly wretched German restaurant in Harvard Square called Das Wursthaus that did possibly the most toxic, unappetizing wienerschnitzel ever (complete with half-cooked egg on top).

not eating taco bell's meat is like going to the beach and not getting into the water

sometimes i end up with taco bell and realize if i was on my game, if i'd just tried harder, i could have ended up with el grande burrito or taco zone instead. but i settled.

Yeah, there is a good taqueria blocks from my work, but the Taco Bell is in my building, and it's hot outside, and and and yeah. I stand by my decision.

I want to point out that there is also a purveyor of hot dogs in my building, but I CHOSE TACOS. FROM TACO BELL. Instead of hot dogs. DO YOU SEE???

or like putting on a condom for a handjob

Only crispy dog on a stick I want:

wienerschnitzel is almost exclusively in the SW, the furthest easterly one being in champaign, IL according to their site.

Probably going to do the dirndl/taco bell thing asap.

I just looked at wienerschnitzel's menu and found that it's sadly lacking in wienerschnitzel!

My dad makes his wienerschnitzel with the fried egg and capers on top but I always asked for it without the egg.

There's a German place near NEMC Jacob Wirth's (I think) but I've never been.

I want some Del Taco tbh

That's really strange on a lot of levels.

like an actual dog took a dump on a hot dog

*I can't believe we got to 200+ posts featuring a statistically significant group of Minnesotans and only now are we dealing with corn dogs.

LOL in London there is Tiroler Hut, which is land of schnitzel and Jagermeister for stag and birthday parties. With lederhosen/accordion old guy bringing the Edelweiss.

Oh no.

Jacob Wirth's

omg so good nuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

xp: Corn dogs are a totally different beast from hot dogs and follow different rules imo.

my girlfriend makes great potato tacos. She roasts the potatos and we add black beans and cabbage and guac and a hundred other things.

potato tacos are heaven. it might be heresy to say this, but there's a vegan restaurant in silver lake that does them brilliantly.

i must remember that i voted for hot dogs.

Not second city. That doesn't include border states. Cities with more Mexicans then chicago:

San Antonio
Los Angeles
Santa Ana
San Diego
El Paso

thing is, chicago has more of a variety of mexicans (ie mexicans from various states/regions within Mexico) than all cities in the American Southwest. Which is why you'll get deliciousness like taco arabe in Chicago in addition to the litany of "standard" tacos.

holy fucking shit, those Wienerschnitzel ads/pics

i like how it says "angus chipotle chili dog" 14 times

I like how it says "buy one horrifying, unappetizing-looking monstrosity and get another one free!"

Please, if my dog crapped that out of its butt I'd take him straight to a vet. After hosing down whatever surface he'd shat upon.

Yeah that's the most unappetizing ad for a food product I've ever seen and that's supposed to be . . . chilli?!

I'm almost ready to say "come back peanut butter hot dog, all is forgiven"

See, you all have it completely wrong.

LA/San Diego are IN North (Occupied) Mexico. Fuck a border patrol.

Ergo, the two best taco towns are in Occupied Mexico.

Seriously, Chicago. Do you really - really think you can step to the LA taco? We KNOW you got sausage down - Abe Frohman be the king and all.

Just back away from this "Chicago is King Taco Town" nonsense.

I want to point out that there is also a purveyor of hot dogs in my building, but I CHOSE TACOS. FROM TACO BELL. Instead of hot dogs. DO YOU SEE???

So terribly clearly. Yes.

fwiw, my main assertion wasn't that chicago had the best tacos, just that it rules this thread, in that you can get top-notch tacos and top-notch dogs, probably for less than $3 in either case

i made a girl i work with potato tacos upon her request and at first i was like wtf is wrong with you but they were pretty badass

Alright. I'll back up. Point taken. Chicagoans can do some eating.

daytime dishwasher at my work has a taco stand she runs at night, her tacos are incredible AND 2 for $3. she keeps trying to make me eat the tripe ones though. i don't like tripe.

Tripa = AWESOME.

Seriously, Chicago. Do you really - really think you can step to the LA taco?

NO! I would never claim that. The LA taco is possibly only second to some Austin, TX aberration of a taco that is full of black beans and spinach and shit that won't give you immediate cancer. But you can also argue that that's not really a taco.

Just back away from this "Chicago is King Taco Town" nonsense.

Didn't say that, but from what I know, Chicago has a greater diversity within its Mexican population and hence a greater diversity within its Mexican cuisine, tacos and beyond.

chicago has excellent tacos but l.a./s.d. have the best. chicago has the best hot dogs, of course. maybe the best pizza.

Also Lengua

Word. Kenan, I feel we have reached an accord today. Should you ever find yourself in LA, and in need of a taco, please to shoot me a line, and we will get it done.

Hopefully, the Chicagoans will reciprocate.

I would never say that Mexican food in Chicago is anything less than complete bullshit, no matter how many Mexicans live here. I hate it.

!!!

since it came up, Pokez (and sd in general) tacos ftw

Chicago does not have excellent tacos.

i will rep for carney's as an example of a great l.a. dog. they have a nice snappy casing and good spice to their dogs. i think the chili on their chili dogs is a little runny but that's forgivable.
