Nothing like it in Montana!! Very nice. I had the Sumo Dog and ordered a large fries. The large fries was a whole serving tray full. Nice work folks. My best meal in Calgary.

My problem with Le Chien Chaud is with the owner, a permanently gloomy Gus who used to order his chips and pop from a certain organic food warehouse (still does, actually). The guy was so humourless, rude and impatient that I felt compelled to tell the shipper (and quite loudly too) that “the guy from Tubby Dog’s here!” He really didn’t like that, but he kept coming back every two weeks for his pick-up order, still very unpleasant!

I recently went to Le Chein Chaud in Mission.. and let me tell you: pure deliciousness. Where Tubby Dog pushes gastronomical boundaries in the name of curiosity and wonder, Le Chien Chaud seems to be all about how delicious one can actually make the hot dog without it busting all over your face. Seriously. Deeeeelish.

The A-Bomb was my cherry-poppin’, first-time dog. The ketchup chips certainly intrigued me the most and boy oh boy did they delight me so. I wasn’t expecting such a glorious combination of what appears, at first, to be all the wrong ingredients. I mean c’mon, mayo and ketchup chips! On a hot dog!!! I was blown away by the genius of it all. Whoever dreamt up this whole “gourmet hot dog” concept is clearly on glue but somehow it manages to work. Don’t ask how, just try it.

Living near 17th Ave I’ve passed by Tubby Dog many a time but never actually taken the plunge until yesterday. Kinda neat My-Favourite-Ice-Cream-Shop style retro kitch decor and Hanna-Barbara cartoons projected onto the back wall – hmmm, okay. I went with the A-Bomb, which according to the menu contains bacon, cheese, mayo, mustard, ketchup, and potato chips. Being the naive TD-inexperienced peon I am I ordered it assuming that there was gonna be a fistful of chips on the side or something. Turns out they shred those bad boys up and PILE THEM on top of the dog itself, combining with the other artery-clogging toppings to form a literal mountain that pretty much oversized the dog itself. A good half of it wound up either on my face or on my plate, but god damn was it undignified deliciousness at its best.
