Considering its humble beginnings survived the end of the Great Depression as well as the beginning of the Second World War, that&#8217;s no easy feat. Legacy and nostalgia can go a long way in preserving the popularity of a place like Pink&#8217;s and it&#8217;s a testament to the Pink family that they&#8217;ve been able to grow what started as a a hot dog cart on the corner of Melrose and LaBrea Avenues into an international phenomenon with locations throughout the Los Angeles area and fans all over the world.<\/p>\n<h2>You go for the creativity<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2694\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2694\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wanderlustforone.com\/destinations\/pinks-hot-dogs-hollywood\/attachment\/pinks-special-menu\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2694\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-2694 \" title=\"pinks-special-menu\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.wanderlustforone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/pinks-special-menu.jpg?resize=630%2C455\" alt=\"Pinks Special Menue\" width=\"630\" height=\"455\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2694\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A few of the special menu items at Pink&#8217;s.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Who knew you could dress up a hot dog so many different ways?
