It fascinates me that this place has made it 20 years. I have never once felt inspired to eat a hot dog along that particular stretch of Burnside. But congrats to her!

The headline made me worry she was going out of business! I'm a vegetarian, but I stop by here every now and then for one of their veggie dogs. Margo Childs (I only knew her as "The Hot Dog Lady," which she calls herself) seems like a great character, always cheerful and blasting punk rock and making handmade signs about her latest specials with colored markers. True classic Portland.
