Even if Jody Maroni's little stand weren't located right on zany Venice beach it would be worth driving to -- from any part of town. Jody usually has about a dozen varieties of dogs available to eat at the stand, from old favorites (knockwurst, Italian sausage) to his own fanciful inventions (Mexican jalapeņo sausage, Indian sausage). Also at Universal CityWalk, The Block at Orange and LAX.
