Pink's for Sunday Breakfast! Breakfast of Champions & Tourists!

Some friends of mine from out of town came to visit. I doing my good Angelino duty took them on the quickie tourist run. Hollywood & Highland, Melrose Blvd. and PINK'S! On Saturday we drove by Pink's hoping for maybe only an hour wait. Yeah, that didn't happen. It was easily a two to three hour wait. I love my friends but being a local I was not going to wait in that line. SO! I drive by there all the time and the best time for no line is around 10 am to 11 am after that look out.

We then planned to have Pink's for Sunday breakfast! Breakfast of tourists! We waited in a ten minute line. Long enough to be pressured with guilt into buying a homeless man a bacon, chili, cheese dog. (The man has good taste.) My friends had a blast looking at all the different names of dogs and burgers. The "Rosie O'Donnell," The "Mayor Dog," so on and so on. While one was reading the names on the menu, the other was shouting the names of the celeb photos on the walls. (If Steve Martin eats there, then I eat there.)

There is something about eating junk food that early in the morning with a group of strangers. Chili dogs brings people together! We chatted with a couple from the Bay area(just like my pals) who had just dropped their daughter off for school. A great discussion of Casper's Dog and Pink's ensued. It was great! We were all bonded by the chili!

I had the Bacon Chili Dog Burrito for breakfast! Yum! (Don't tell my mother!) My friends had chili dogs, cheese dogs, chili fries and onion rings. Seriously, folks this is some good food. Pink's is great because it is a Los Angeles landmark, has some good food, is priced reasonably and is chalked full of characters.

Did you know that Pink's has been in the same location for 65 years?

Did you know that there is actually a Mr & Mrs. Paul and Betty Pink?

Okay, so here is the My L.A. Now tip: if you are going to Pink's try to get there before 12 pm.
