No chairs, no ketchup, bad service

You're hungry. Hot dog stands sound mighty delicious, eh? Delicate beef with all the wonderful condiments, including the sweet, succulent ketchup. Mmm. Oh, just thinking about it now, you'll really enjoy digesting this wondrous supplement.
Believe it or not, we live in a world where this is not always the case.
Welcome to Gene and Jude's Hot Dog Stand, where the assumed must certainly not be expected.
Located on River Road in River Grove, Gene and Jude's was opened in 1950 by Gene Mormino and his partner.
Today, many students attended the joint for a quick bite to eat as a part of Integrated Studies Class.
From a quick glance, it'll most definitely look like a regular hot dog stand. Go inside, however, you might think that it's only a bad joke.
"They had no chairs," said Pattie Sanchez, a senior, who informed me briefly of the ups, downs, dos and don'ts. "The closest thing they had to eat on was a few misplaced counters, which you'd stand next to to munch upon the goodness."
And that isn't the half of it;
No ketchup?
"Not even, man," said Bryan Thompson. "The smart thing to do, what I do is bring a few packets with you; if you ask for ketchup, they'll declare you 'you gone.'"
Thompson's smuggled ketchup earned him an extra point for the day. "He's pretty resourceful and I was so grateful for the ketchup," said Ms. O'Neill.
Gone is "No shoes, no shirts, no service." Here is "no chairs, no ketchup, BAD service."
Do I recommend it? I hear it has good food, yet terrible service. I don't suggest Gene and Jude's but it wouldn't be too bad to go.
