Default Good hotdog in downtown Calgary?

Does anyone know where to get a good hotdog in downtown Calgary? I've been craving one for awhile now, but have yet to see a single street meat vendor near where I work (near Eau Claire market) this spring.

It might be too early for street meat vendors, and in any event they are of uneven quality. Hence my question.

Suggestions anyone?

Appreciated.

There's one called Sausage Party right beside the C-Train station at City Hall.

Yes, OJ's is certainly decent. But it doesn't have that outdoors feel that I think I'm craving.

What was that movie where Roy Schieder said "You can't grow a good hotdog indoors?"

The Yodelling Sausage on 8th isn't bad either.

It's inside, just a little booth close to the Subway near the foodcourt. Haven't been downthere since 2003 since I don't live in Calgary right now. Hope it's still around!

There's an outdoor set up on 6th St. & 7th Ave SW. Smells good, I have never had though.

You could change the title to "Good gaybars in downtown Calgary" and not need to change the content of the posts one bit.

Le Chein Chaud is awesome but probably out of range ... 4th and 20th Ave south or so ... they also have a set up in the Calgary Farmer's Market .. I think a trp there might be in order this upcoming weekend.
