You can argue over L.A.’s best hot dog, but Pink’s is the city’s most famous. The stand, open since 1939, most notably serves up dogs named after local legends and Hollywood heroes, from the Huell Howser Dog to the (Marlon) Brando Dog. But it made its name with a chili dog, a simple dog smothered in chili, onions, cheese and mustard, and it’s just as known for this as it is the bright pink exterior. The lines aren’t as long as they used to be, so come on over for a bite of L.A. history—the (hot dog) water’s warm.
Time Out tip: Before 4pm, chase your hot dog with a caffeinated drink from Be Bright, one of L.A.’s finest coffee shops. The award-winning shop is located about seven minutes’ walk away from Pink’s.
