In a last-minute scramble to find one more thing for the guy who has
everything, head to Tubby
Dog and pick up the new Tubby Book by Vinciane de Pape
($35).
The nearly 100-page tome chronicles the history of the hot dog eatery,
covering the eclectic weiner menu, the diverse clientele, well-known
staff and the variety of events it hosts, including rock concerts and
late-night festivities.
Inspired by a classic coffee table book, the format is a tad smaller but
the collection of photos and blurbs about the popular 17th Avenue
hangout is the perfect piece of history about a longstanding Calgary
tradition.
