Pink's Hot Dogs, or simply Pink's, is a legendary hot dog joint in Los Angeles. A couple named Paul and Betty Pink opened the little pushcart in 1939. Betty's own chili was used for the hot dogs, specifically Hoffy hot dogs, and they became an instant hit. Pink's is not only insanely popular amongst the general public, but also with celebrities as well. There are all kinds of hot dog combinations one can order from Pink's. The line tends to get seriously long throughout the day.

What?: Original Tommy's
Where?: 2575 Beverly Blvd
How Far From Disneyland?: Roughly 30 miles away, with at least a thirty minute drive
How Much?: Depends.
Original Tommy's is a legendary food joint in Los Angeles as well, specifically a hamburger spot. Tom Koulax opened the original spot on Beverly in 1946. Tommy's is most famous for their absolutely delicious chili. They sell chili cheese dogs as well, and those things are massive. The original location is by far the best, and it is great because it still looks as it looked back in the forties. Back in the sixties, a second order location was added to the space. Tommy's has become so popular, an extra space was bought for parking. The original spot is open 24 hours, and lines get nuts after a Dodger game.
