Chicago's very own Superdawg Drive In at twilight. Chicago Illinois. Tuesday night, August 17th, 2010.

I took this photo Tuesday night this week after work.

Drive In Restaurants with car hop service were once very common throughout the greater Chicagoland area during the 1950's and 1960's Baby Boomer era, but had all but completely disappeared by the mid 1970's.

Superdawg Drive In at the intersection of North Milwaukee and West Devon Avenue was one of the rare ones that stayed with the program, and are still in business today as a popular local Chicago area drive in restaurant.

Superdawg had also just recently opened up a brand new location along Milwaukee Avenue, in far northwest suburban Wheeling Illinois.

Superdawg was also featured on the cable TV Food Network as well in recent times.
