It's shame, as I never got to try it. The last few times I’ve driven by, I do not recall seeing anything left of the Dawg Father. It’s shame, as I never got to try it.

I had a craving earlier but couldn't find it while driving by the location. I tried calling later but the line isn't connected anymore. Boo, I hope it's not gone forever. The owner is definitely an interesting character and I adored their hot dogs and ruby fries! Any idea what happened to the Dawg Father?!?

During the moment that I was eating the dog it took me back to NY. The other thing that has gone unnoticed but is equally as good are the ruby potatoes and coleslaw. The best fries I have had in the city. The coleslaw is fantastic -- not too salty and definitely not bland. The owner is a real character so if you are looking for some entertainment, eat in. This is an absolute must for all Edmontonians and visitors alike. What an absolutely fabulous place! During the moment that I was eating the dog it took me back to NY.

It's a little easier to engage the owner when it's a storefront like this one, and the person taking your order is actually the owner himself. I'll do my best to keep nosing my way in there though! Amanda - when it comes to a value-driven hot dog, it's hard to beat Costco :). Violet - it's about four blocks away from the new EMCN building. Let me know if you get a chance to try it! Adam - to each their own, I guess! Rob – thanks for the comment.
