Southern California is known for Hollywood, celebrities, gangs, surfing, Disneyland & so on but not many people realize that it’s also the birthplace for many of America’s fast food restaurants. McDonalds opened in San Bernardino, Carl’s Jr in Anaheim & Wienerschnitzel in Wilmington. Wienerschnitzel expanded to Texas 10 years ago & Texans didn’t welcome it as many of them have long gone. The only one we’re aware of that’s still opened is in Allen, Tx. Out here in California, there’s a Wienerschnitzel at every corner so we decided to stop by the first one opened in 1961. Located on Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) in Wilmington, we got chili dogs, fries & a drink and yes, it tasted like it was made in 1961. But it’s a guilty pleasure; cheap & available so we find ourselves chomping down a few from time to time. Plus, you can snag 5 chili dogs for about $5 & take it with ya to the beach for a ghetto picnic. On our way to Der Wienerschnitzel we snapped a photo of VIP Records in the Eastside of Long Beach (LBC) on the PCH. VIP Records is most well known for being the back drop of LBC alumn Snoop Dogg.
