Hank Adaniya, the owner and founder of Hank’s Haute Dogs, is a Chicago native, and we sure couldn’t pass up a good Chicago hot dog on this trip! It also happens to be their most popular item on the menu, and boy was it delicious!
Hank is no stranger to the restaurant industry; he has promoted some of the biggest chef names in the industry, and created an award-winning fine dining restaurant called Trio. Eventually, Hank decided to leave the luxurious style of dining for good old hot dogs, and has not looked back since.
Hank’s Huate Dogs has been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Man vs. Food, and Unique Eats. This hot dog joint is not for the shy eater. With meats such as lobster, shrimp, and fish sausage, and toppings like cran-apple relish and pickled daikon-carrot, picky eaters are advised to stay away. Hank prides the restaurant in its “American staples with a twist” marketing. The flavors of these hot dogs appeal to tastes and diets of all kinds.
