A little while ago I finally went to Casper's on Telegraph, which scored high for architecture but radically low for edibility, which made me wonder... does Oakland even care about hot dogs?

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.
