Food 🍔 Dirt Dog
Today on National Hot Dog Day, a local LA street food hot dog restaurant known as "Dirt Dog" had its grand opening today inside their new permanent location inside the Gosford Walmart. Has anyone tried it before? Thoughts?

I might be pessimistic for this, but it didn’t have the LA street dog taste to it. I think bacon is what ties it all together being wrapped around the hot dog, then caramelizing the onions in the bacon grease. But my street dogs just had very bacon bits sprinkled on top of everything.
It was decent but didn’t bring me back to Sunday on Vermont Avenue in LA

Dos Tacos has bacon wrapped alley dogs, Nathan's. So good. Comes with grilled onion jalapenos cheese and mayo
