Lake County Chowdown Showdown

Where is the best place to get a hotdog in Lake County?

We are back again with our restaurant review column on Lake Forest-Lake Bluff Patch, Grayslake Patch and Libertyville Patch — effective now and centered around, and dependent upon, our readers.

The Chowdown Showdown is meant to be a fun way for readers to vote on their favorite places to get certain entrees in Lake County.

For example, this week, we are on a mission to find the best hotdog place in Lake County. Instead of sending a food review columnist out to give their sole opinion, we will be looking to you, the readers, to make that decision.

It’s up to you to vote. You can vote by telling us in the comments’ section of this article or by commenting on Facebook — Grayslake Patch page, Lake Forest Lake Bluff Patch page, or the Libertyville Patch page — or sending us a message on Twitter — @GrayslakePatch, @LakeForestPatch, or @LvillePatch.

If you are really pulling for a certain establishment, be sure to share the columns on your personal Facebook page and Twitter feed to get your favorite spot more visibility.

By 5 p.m. Tuesday, we will take the three most popular submissions and post as a poll in a column first thing Wednesday morning.

We will keep the poll open until 5 p.m. Friday. At that time, the restaurant with the most votes will be named Patch’s Chowdown Showdown Champion and will have ultimate bragging rights over the fact that they make the best hotdog or pizza or omelet — you get the point!

This is all about participation so we hope you will chime in and check back.
Now that you know what’s going on, lets get the ball rolling.

Patch readers, tell us, what is the BEST place to get a hotdog in Lake County?
