Jim's Original

Open 24 hours and standing on the site of the original Maxwell Street market, Jim's has been grilling Polish sausages and hot dogs on an open flame since 1939. Onions piled high, yellow mustard, sport peppers — no frills, no seats, no excuses. The 2 AM crowd here is half the experience.
