"Originally located at 7450 Santa Monica Blvd., the stand became a famous hangout for the punk rock crowd starting back in the late 1970s and '80s. Pictures on the Oki-Dog's Instagram page show bands like the Beastie Boys wearing Oki-Dog trucker hats during photo shoots while pioneering punk band Youth Gone Mad scored a minor hit with the single 'Oki Dog' in the early 1980s."
"Famed chef and food and travel TV star the late Anthony Bourdain also visited Oki-Dog to try the stand's famous namesake dish the Oki Dog, which is made with two hotdogs, pastrami and chili wrapped up in tortilla. Bourdain was not a fan of the unusual dish. 'This is really deranged. I regret that I have only one life to give to my network.'"
