A campus favorite for over 20 years, and still going strong. Specializes in genuine Chicago-style hot dogs, but has branched out from there. Made a brief foray into franchising when it changed its name to "Chicago Dog House," but dropped that and all is forgiven.

Waffle fries. Waffle fries with *cheese*. Be still my beating heart. For the complete vegetarian meal that's worse for you than red meat, see also the superb tempeh burgers from Rosewood Farms. Best vegan burger in A2 (also true enlightenment awaits those who journey to Ypsilanti).

Dollar dogs, $1 with 2 toppings.

Located at the corner of East University at Willard Street.

Tragic end

It looks like Red Hot Lovers is now closed. There has been a water shut off notice on the door for approximately one week. After closing for the winter break, Red Hot Lovers did not re-open.

The Forest writes "I will always remember telling them that my name was George. I will always remember walking in from the cold and hanging up my jacket before sitting down in one of their booths where the table always seemed a little to close to the seats. Even though your new owner was a dick, I will miss you Red Hot Lovers, and I am sad that I was not there to see your end."
