George Wendt Feasts at Hot Doug’s

That's the look of a satisfied customer.

Though he was born here and certainly knows his way around a Polish sausage, George Wendt really has been living in California for too long. Case in point: He’d never been to Hot Doug’s. That was corrected when he was in town to promote his new book, Drinking With George, and WGN reporter Marcus Leshock took him to the encased meat emporium. Doug Sohn is as polite as usual, but the real deal is watching that wondrous look on Wendt’s face when he eats a fully loaded Chicago dog. All he can manage is, “It’s really good.” Oh, and don’t even think about hitting up Hot Doug’s for the rest of the week. The man is on vacation until June 1. [Windy Citizen]
