Meating out some real justice

Dougsohnblog Now that murder, arson, sexual assault, corruption, and poverty have been eliminated, the city can finally focus on real crime: foie gras hot dogs. The Chicago Tribune reports that the owner of Hot Doug's has been fined for serving a forbidden duck liver sausage . We feel safer already. But Trib restaurant critic Phil Vettel expects "pro-choice foodies" to help owner Doug Sohn (left) help pay his $250 fine . Where do you stand on the foie gras issue?

In other dog news...

The Illinois legislature is considering a bill that would allow dogs to accompany their owners in outdoor cafes. According to the Associated Press, the bill is written in such a way that it would apply only to cities with populations in excess of one million. But after strolling around Lakeview last weekend, the Extrovert is surprised to learn that you can't already bring your four-legged pals with you. We spied plenty of pooches on the laps of diners in cafes along Broadway. In fact, Nabo's even offers bowls of water for thirsty critters.













What do you think? Should dogs be allowed where people are eating?
