Toluca Lake had the last Hot Dog Show restaurant, once a thriving chain. It closed Sunday, according to LA Observed.

Longtime Ontario denizens will recall the Hot Dog Show on West Holt (A Street) at San Antonio, which stood from 1951 to 1960, when it burned down due to a grease fire in the kitchen. A Burger King now occupies that corner.
