How could they order from hotdog carts again, after what all happened?

It symbolizes that they have closure. If you notice, the hot dog vendor is a foreign guy just like the one they stole from at the beginning. Plus, the director goes to great lengths to show Shakes actually pay for the hot dogs this time!
Oh, I've chosen my words carefully Persian perhaps you should have done the same. Leonidas -

Presumably, the boys felt a sense of closure after the court case - a big chunk of their horrific cast has come to an end and they can finally move forward and that's symbolized by the ordering of the hotdogs at the end.
Even note they ask for "two napkins" which was what they asked in the begining. -

There is a scene just before the initial hearing of the boys where they said something like "we never saw the vender as a man, we didn't respect him and didn't notice how hard he worked and that he had a wife and 2 kids in Greece where he wanted to bring to this country, we only saw a free lunch". This pretty much tells us that they genuinely felt remorse. And considering the fact they were faced with far worse recollections in seeing the men who raped them, I don't think the sight of a hotdog cart would be too much to handle.

I think in Michael's own very small way he is trying to make amends.
Whereas as kids they were rude and snotty and stole the hot dogs, now they are polite and pay with real money.- You ever seen Superman $#$# his pants? Case closed.
