People Travel Across Wisconsin For The Massive Subs At This Little Deli

A sandwich shop that sells subs up to 24 inches long also has a flexing red bull on the wall. That tells me quite a bit before anyone even orders. The size options say this kitchen likes a challenge. Two feet of bread is a group project, not a snack. It’s built for sharing, bragging, or a very ambitious lunch.

Former plumber to open hot dog restaurant on Packard Avenue in Cudahy

A West Allis man is trading in the sometimes-dirty plumbing trade to instead open Dirty Dogs , a hot dog-focused restaurant in Cudahy. Jim Turner said his goal was to find a less physical line of work after suffering a heart attack that nearly killed him in early 2026. He also wanted to do something he enjoyed more – cooking – and have a more set schedule. Dirty Dogs will offer various versions of hot dogs including the Chicago-style hot dog, and one topped with mac and cheese, pulled pork and coleslaw. Being in Cudahy, bacon was a given with Turner planning to offer a BLT hot dog. The restaurant will also serve Italian beef, chicken, smash burgers and a Friday fish fry with hand-breaded beer battered fish. Sides could include coleslaw, cheese curds, and possibly mac and cheese bites with other options still in discussion. Dirty Dogs is working to get a liquor license with plans to offer a small selection of beers, too. Turner is planning a soft opening with family and friends – many of whom also make up the staff – to test and finalize the menu with a goal of opening to the public Dec.
