In a significant shift after nearly nine decades, Jim's Original, the iconic Chicago hot dog stand that has defined the taste of Maxwell Street since 1939, is on the move 🌭

Known for their legendary Polish sausage loaded with onions and mustard, this beloved eatery is preparing for a change while aiming to revive its 24-hour service. A bittersweet chapter closes, but a new one begins for this culinary landmark.

Time to celebrate, Chicagoans!
@humboldtpark 's beloved swan boats are returning this summer—because nothing says seasonal optimism quite like pedaling furiously while pretending to be a serene waterfowl.
