Chicago Food Truck Makes Cameo in Showtime’s Shameless

Did you catch Sunday’s episode of the Showtime show Shameless? The dark comedy about a dysfunctional family is not only based on Chicago’s south side, but it is also filmed there. A local food truck made a guest appearance on the show when two of the characters grabbed lunch.

This photo was taken from inside the Haute Dog truck during the filming, and shows actress Emmy Rossum, AKA Fiona Gallagher, with a hot dog. It was posted on the truck’s Twitter account.
