Since 1939, Pink’s has been located near the corner of Melrose and La Brea in Hollywood. It can be easily found by looking for a crowd of people and following the aroma of fresh meaty chili and soft hot dog buns. Pink’s Hot Dog Stand is a quick lunch, a nostalgic trip into the past, and a delicious experience. It is definitely a Hollywood landmark!

One of my favorite things about Pink’s is the “Super Specials” menu.  From the “Walk of Fame Dog” to the “Martha Stewart Dog” (It’s a good thing!), this restaurant reflects Hollywood.  For the complete Pink’s experience, check out the photo gallery on our Facebook page.  I even was able to enjoy my dog next to a famous chef – check it out!

With so many great choices, it was hard to decide what dog was right for me.  In the end, I went with a Pink’s classic – The Bacon-Chili-Cheese Dog.  Give this recipe a try for a unique Hollywood experience at home!
