| - Lots of interesting and creative hot dog options options available, but execution of the menu items were mediocre at best. For the price, which is $5-$10 for a hot dog (most are closer to $10), I would expect better. The toppings and the hot dog itself were fairly good. But then again, it shouldn't be too difficult to produce a decent hot dog. What I found surprising and disappointing was no effort to heat up the bun. It was served cold and right out of the package. No steaming, grilling, or toasting of the bun. So what you get is a cooked hot dog with hot toppings, and a room temperature bun. Also tried onion rings and poutine fires. The onion rings were good. The batter was light and fried well. Unfortunately, the poutine fries were terrible. There was barely any gravy and cheese curds on the fries. In fact, when I first looked at the fries, I thought they had given me regular fries in error. There was not enough gravy to cover the fries and I had to dig to the bottom of the fries to find any cheese. The "cheese curds" turned out to be a ping pong ball sized glob of completely melted cheese. If you are looking for a place that services poutine, this is not it. Their version is nothing like traditional poutine. Additionally, the cashier who took our order had a scowl on her face and made us feel like we were bothering her. Two hot dogs + 1 onion rings + 1 poutine fries + 1 bottle of water + 1 ice tea = $31. For the price and lack of quality, there are much better options elsewhere.
