Tubby Dog
Since opening in 2005, Tubby Dog has been a neighbourhood comfort food staple. The diner-esque joint continues to dish up a range of signature hot dogs (each with their own surprising topping) all priced at under $10. Keep it classic with the eatery’s Tubby Dog, a loaded hot dog filled with homemade chili, bacon, cheese, onions, and mustard. For something a little more unconventional dig into the PBJ, a dog smothered in PB & J and topped with Captain Crunch cereal.
