    Anyone have any info on when Dirty Frank's Hotdogs, the latest restaurant from Liz Lessner who owns Bettys and Surly Girl, is opening? Does anyone know where it's opening downtown? I can't wait to try it!

    I believe its in the old Queen Bee location, but I'll let LL give you the lowdown on opening dates ;)

    And yes, I also can't wait to try it. I hope LL overestimates her purchasing, because I gotta feelin there's a lot of Columbusites itching to down stupid amounts of hot dogs.

    Their Twitter feed is a good place to get the latest updates:
    http://twitter.com/DirtyFranksDogs

    Or Facebook group:
    http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=53734101113&ref=ts

    And here's their actual webpage, but it seems like just a placeholder for now, so one of the other links would probably be better:

    Coming soon....worth the wait. I am sure there will be advance warning on CU and elsewhere.

    It is at the old Queen Bee. Contruction and prep are wrapping up. Recipes are tested. The team is training. And they have some cool Clinton Reno Posters promoting there frankfurters.

    Hey everybody:

    Here's the very first sneak peek at the hot dog menu:

    http://www.dirtyfrankshotdogs.com/menu/dfmenutemp.pdf

    All dogs will be less than $3.

    Sandwiches, Italian Beefs, casseroles and salads will be implemented on a trial basis, run first as specials and added to the menu as deemed necessary by our regular customers. We are experimenting with few more Indian, Greek and Turkish relishes, look for those dogs to be added shortly!

    Decorating is underway, equipment is waiting in the wings. We are close, really close.

    A foodcast by our favorite friends CMH Gourmand and Zack Briggs will be posted here soon, check out that sometime next week.

    Still accepting music for our all local and all independent jukebox, email music@dirtyfrankshotdogs.com for more info.

    Many thanks for your love and patience,

    Elizabeth Lessner

    Oooh, nice to see something for those of us who like something a little more fiery. That Hot Baliwood looks delish.

    I second Walker vis-a-vis the Whoah Nellie, too, though.

    Looks great! Other than the obvious Chicago-style (gotta love a good Chicago dog), the "True Love Always" is calling to me - cream cheese + green olives FTW!

    I gotta tell ya, first of all...I'm simply going to hand that menu back to the server/counter person and say "I'd like this please".

    But out of all of those, I'm really intrigued by the Nikola.

    Foodcast should be up on Thursday with the Downlow on Dirty Franks.

    In the meantime - a Chicago Food primer:

    http://cmhgourmand.com/sidedish-sidetrip-chicago/

    And how the Dirty Franks Crew does product research and recipe testing.

    Hot Dogs...it's what's for dinner.
