Hawt Dog
If, and when, you’re in Los Angeles, Marty D’s should not be missed. Here are some reasons why:
-Old-school soda fountain
-Incredibly nice staff (Marty himself invited us in!)
-Great selection of condiments (including spicy and sweet mustards, homemade dill relish and onion compote)
-8-inch beef kosher dogs served in a warm, poppy-seed buns
-Candy apple-colored bar
-Premium ice cream and homemade hot fudge (ignore the part on the menu that says to order it if you’re not too hungry though…it’s big).
-Perfectly crisp regular and sweet potato fries
We left the diner excruciatingly full, but we’re already planning a trip back sometime very soon.

Sounds like you had a great time, Emily! I went away for the weekend for my 22nd birthday, and near the hotel we stayed at was this very cool American style diner (I’m in the UK, but dream of living in the US) and this post really reminded me of it!
The sundae looks so yummy
mmm…mmmm….mm!

Any place serving a hot dog bun other then plain gets my vote. Love that color scheme!

That hot dog looks amazing! Love the old school charm of that place, next time I’m in LA to visit my sister I’ll for sure stop on in.
Enjoying your blog!
I wish I lived closer to LA. This looks delish.
I came here for the fashion but this hot dog post got me… I am originally from Chicago … miss hot dogs …. good hot dogs… now I know where to go for them when I am in LA
These pics look like something from a different era . . . so hard to find fab one of a kind “malt shops” these days!
You look beautiful, btw!

I go crazy for old fashion diners like this one. We have one in Boca I like to visit occasionally, that’s an old fashioned Ice Cream parlour! =]
Adorable outfit. xxxx

that looks like the cutest diner EVER! your pics are great!
Oh I love these photos and everything looks so yummy! I have to go there when I am in Los Angeles!

i so completely love this! i’ll definitely have to hit this place up if (when! when!) i make it out there.
your headband is so completely cute!
yummi

Oh man, this looks like reason enough to take a trip to L.A! The thought of hot fudge is WAY more appealing than the chicken and quinoa I just ate for lunch…
YUM YUM looks like quite a treat!
this is so my kind of place, i wish it wasn’t 2,462 miles away!
i would kill for this.
I go to college in LA and a friend and I hit Marty D’s during mid-terms. SUPER DELISH.
LOVE the sweet potato fries most.
