Things to do before baby comes...Pink's Hotdogs!

Since Jarrett and I have moved to Los Angeles, we have been trying to do all the "touristy" things just once to say we have experienced them. We have done a ton... The Getty, La Brea Tarpits, Walk of Fame, Pantages Theater, Modern History Museum, Queen Mary, USC game etc... but one of the last things we haven't done was have a Pink's Hotdog!

For those of you who haven't heard of Pink's, it is the oldest hot dog stand in Los Angeles located on the corner of Melrose and La Brea and is been open since 1939. It's been featured on the Food Network and such, because of its celebrity clientle and interesting hot dog combinations. There is ALWAYS a line, and on Saturday there was no exception... we waited 45 minutes to get our dogs. It was a beautiful day, so I didn't mind waiting in line, although people gave Jarrett sympathetic looks.."Poor guy having to get hotdogs... his wife is probably craving Pink's!" This was hilarious, because I like a good hot dog every once in a while (thouroghly charred), but Jarrett is a connoisseur of chili dogs and was using me in his ploy to get his Pink's! LOL.

Here's what we ordered:

Left to right: Chili Cheese Dog, "Martha Stewart Dog" 10" stretch dog, relish, onions, bacon, chopped tomatos, sauerkraut & sourcream (I did NOT try this one), Hot dog with ketchup, Nacho Chili Cheese fries (sooooo Yummy!!)
