In 2007, I quit my job and opened our first Windy City Red Hots location – the Food Truck in Ashburn!  Years later, we opened a Brick and Mortar location in Leesburg followed by another in Frederick, MD.  We are a local family owned eatery serving authentic Chicago favorites in the DC metro area and when we say authentic, we mean it  – our food comes from Chicago.  Just like my family and some of you, we’re from city (northwest side  – yep Cubs fans).  We are passionate about sharing simple old school Chicago food culture because we love seeing satisfied smiles on people’s faces.
