Chicago-Style Hot Dogs Roll into Columbia with Opening of Guy's Hotdogs Food Truck

COLUMBIA: A Taste of Chicago Coming Your Way!

Get ready to put your taste buds on a joyride, Columbia! A new food truck is rolling into town, and it’s bringing one of Chicago’s most cherished culinary delights with it—Chicago-style hot dogs! That’s right, folks! Anthony Guy is ready to unveil his mouthwatering creation, Guy’s Hotdogs, and he’s more excited than a kid in a candy store!

Meet the Man Behind the Dogs

So, who exactly is this Anthony Guy? Well, he’s a self-proclaimed hot dog enthusiast, and his passion for the humble frank has turned into a dream more than a decade in the making. After relocating from the Windy City to Columbia two years ago, Anthony realized how much he missed those delicious hot dogs and decided it was high time he created his version right here at home. “I was just looking for a good hot dog,” he said with a smile. “I finally just decided to do it.”

Now, after months of hard work—think late nights, lots of research, and a sprinkle of optimism—Guy’s Hotdogs is about to take its first official plunge into the Columbia food scene! Anthony has secured all necessary operational permits and even went all out by sourcing the authentic Vienna beef hot dogs that Chicago is famous for. No half-measures here; this guy is serious about his dogs!

What’s On the Menu?

Now let’s get to the good stuff—what will you find on the menu? You guessed it—Chicago-style hot dogs are the star of the show! For those who might not be as familiar, this hot dog masterpiece is served on a poppyseed bun and topped with an ensemble of must-have ingredients: Vienna beef sausage, tomatoes, onions, relish, sport peppers, celery salt, and to complete it, a pickle spear. No ketchup, please! This is not only a meal but a work of art that’s as delicious as it is photogenic.

But wait, there’s more! If you’re feeling a touch of spontaneity, Guy’s Hotdogs will also serve a couple of other variations—a plain hot dog for the purists and a delicious chili dog for those craving a little more zest. And what’s a hot dog without some crunchy side options? You can munch on some chips and sip on a refreshing bottled soft drink to wash it all down!

Exciting Times Ahead!

As Anthony and his team prepare for their grand debut, they’re keeping their growing social media following in the loop. Just the other day, they shared a celebratory post on Facebook announcing their A-grade inspection by the South Carolina Department of Agriculture. That’s right—a big thumbs up from the food safety folks! How exciting!

“I am hoping to open up in the next week or two and I am still looking for places to set up at in the Lexington and Columbia area,” the post read. It seems Anthony is on the hunt for the perfect locations to dish out his delicious dogs, and he’s seeking your help! If you know of any hot spots that would love a food truck, don’t hesitate to reach out.
