LA is the secret second city of American hot dogs, although it comes nowhere near Chicago as the home of the true American weenie. Now the chili dog at Original Tommy’s doesn’t contain a wiener that’s of any note whatsoever, the combination of their dry, simple bun, the dog and their mysterious chili, topped by onions, two huge tomato slices and a pile of pickles is magic, like the G.I. Joe team, it comes together into an unlikely and unstoppable force. Everyone always orders the burgers, but I’ve become devoted to the chili dog. Christ, I love this dog.
