"Richard Pink, the co-owner, told Foodbeast in an interview that the proposed tariffs under the Trump administration could affect the business because the hot dog casings used at the restaurant are made in China; when tariffs take effect, they could drive the cost of those casings up." - Rebecca Roland
"Chowhound recounts the history of a hot-dog institution that began as a $50 pushcart in 1939 and grew into an iconic restaurant; it is celebrating its 85th anniversary this year and sold 85-cent hot dogs earlier this month to commemorate the occasion." - Rebecca Roland
"Starting October 24, hot dog stand Pink’s is offering a special "Blues Dog" — a bacon, chili, and cheese–topped dog priced at $7.17 as a nod to the Dodgers’ World Series titles and Shohei Ohtani’s jersey numbers." - Rebecca Roland
"Hollywood restaurant Mr. T and Pink’s Hot Dogs are collaborating on French-inspired hot dogs for a special event on July 27 and 28. The menu includes unique toppings like beef Bourguignon, bearnaise sauce, raclette cheese, and Gruyere cheese, paired with French cocktails." - Cathy Chaplin
"With Pink’s Hot Dogs having been around for over 80 years, it’s a testament to how the team is doing something right. The Hollywood stalwart boasts an incredibly long hot dog menu that pays homage to famous people and LA institutions. (Pro tip: Always get the nacho chili cheese fries.) It’s a slice of LA history seeing the signed celebrity autographs on the walls that are both cheesy and fun. And while there may occasionally be a line, it moves rather quickly." - Eater Staff
