The roller skating carhop at Cupid's Hot Dogs | What We're Into

This week, Lucas Kwan Peterson takes a backseat while the owners of Cupid's Hot Dogs in Winnetka roller skate during their weekly carhop service. Sisters Kelly and Morgan Walsh brought their love of roller skating to the business and went viral in 2020 and with it came a new generation of fans to the hot dog stand.

I live in CO now but have many fond memories of going to that specific location. I got to 3rd base in that parking lot in 1994 😆. I miss how the valley used to be. Now it's all but unrecognizable. 😔

Cupid's first hot dog stand was at "the five corners" intersection of Lankershim Blvd, Tujunga Avenue and Burbank Blvd. My family lived close by and we used to go to Cupid's for lunch on some week-ends. I've eaten at most of the locations of Cupid's. Their Cupid's Original (mustard onions, chile) is the only hot dog I'll eat. I've tried Pinks in Hollywood. it's a close second but the lines are unbearable, and while you're in that neighborhood why not just go to El Coyote and have a fantastic Mexican meal?

Even though no hot dogs were enjoyed, I really loved this episode. 👍

I miss the Van Nuys location next to the courthouse. I have eaten there, the Wenekta location. the CSUN location and there was one next to Taft High if I remember. I used to get 6 with mustard, chillie, onions. Now I can only afford one lol.

Had my first ever Pink's hot dog at an event at the Petersen Museum last month. I have no idea what the hype is about.
