00:00Take me out for some hot dogs.
00:04Alright, I'm back in the Windy City, and I'm down here at Faro's and Pigs on the Southside.
00:10It's a Southside institution since 1986, and you're nearly known for Italian ice and lemonade.
00:19They do have a hot dog, and let's see if it's working in a tank.
00:25It's like a raw dog in Faro's on the Southside of Chicago.
00:30Maybe we'll see bad, bad anywhere around here.
00:41Open for a tiny drink.
00:44I've always liked Italian ice more than I like ice cream.
00:47Okay, this place is called Fizz at Faro's.
00:50You know, they've been around since 1986.
00:53They also have Italian beef here, Italian ice, lemonade, and, uh, well, they have red hot Chicago beef products.
01:04No Vienna beef?
01:07No poppy seed?
01:09I mean, isn't that against the law in Chicago?
01:15Well, let's see how this hot dog actually tastes.
01:17On the dog ratio, he is pretty good.
01:20But we'll see if the hot dog's actually, uh, worthy of a tank.
01:24Coloring looks decent enough.
01:25Let's see how it actually tastes.
01:36It's got a decent snap.
01:48I'm going to give this a single.
01:50It's close to a double, but this is something lacking.
01:55And here's a chili cheese dog.
01:57A lot of beans.
01:58A lot of chili.
02:01A giant mess.
02:07Golly, it is a giant mess.
02:20Yeah, it totally is too messy.
02:24Watery.
02:26Too many beans.
02:31Uh, I mean, you can't even lift a dog up because it's such a mess.
02:36And, you know, they gave me a knife and pork to eat it with.
02:40If you need a knife and pork to eat your chili dog, it's going to be a strikeout.
02:45All right, they got some fries here.
02:48Let's see how the fries actually taste.
02:52Okay, I'm not too, wow, the coloring isn't perfect.
02:55It's not bad, but it's not.
03:106.4 on the fries.
03:12All right, now, we've got a highly competitive market of hot dogs here in Chicago.
03:22And sadly, I just don't think this place matches it up to the rest of the city.
03:27But if you know any of the places I should go, let me know.
03:30Email me, nktank99 at gmail.com.
03:33You should never know what I'm going to show.
03:35Until next time, keep broad-dogging.
03:41Take me out for some hot dogs.
03:45Get me one that's only plain.
03:48No mustard or ketchup.
03:51I'll know what the dog is really about.
03:55And it's hope that this is a good one.
03:59Maybe a whole one or a double.
04:01But if it sucks, it will be a strikeout.
04:05And not worthy of my taste buds.
04:28And it's a good one.
