I also tried a Guatemalan shuco at Shucos Magi on Foothill in Fruitvale. Cutting the sausage and demoting it to a minority player seems to push us way to the right of the hot dog / sandwich spectrum, but still pretty interesting. A good 'wich, maybe a good dog.

maybe another entrant? www.instagram.com/gloryhole.ho... There's also the vegan hotdogs at Tall Boy to consider!

Haha, acing the domain game too: yourfavoriteholeinthewall.com. I hope to give them a try! Vegans dogs at Tall Boy are are almost as good as the palpable sensation of being decades outside of the target demographic. Probably something to look forward to at There/There as well.

Which I did, at Winky Dinky Dog in the triangular oddity of the former Kasper's in Temescal. Dogs are grilled, buns are toasted and better than they need to be. Tyranny, the owner, was holding court while women's doubles incongruously played on the TV. Set and match for ambiance and a very good dog.

Uh oh. I live a few blocks away from Winky Dinky Dog, and I've been struggling to reconcile their prices with my mental model of what even a fancy hot dog should cost. Your post is forcing me to reconsider my position.

My mental model of what anything should cost has been completely scrambled by inflation. Every time I buy something to eat it's basically www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTsw...

We've got Top Dog, of course, though sadly not in Oakland anymore. Danger / Mission / street dogs are a thing downtown, though they're not originally Californian, let alone of the Town. I should probably stop hoping for some kind of hyper local hot dog subculture and just try to find a good dog.

Whoa! When did top dog on Lakeshore close?

Recently I think. I want to know what happened to one of my favorite pieces of art.
