Look tempting, but I don't think I would put mustard on a dog with chili on it.

I ordered them based on their standard for how they make them.  Two places are right next door to each other in downtown Detroit.  I think they were $3.75 at both places.

The American coney is exactly how Gwennie eats them and always has. Not exactly my 1st. pick but they are pretty dang good. I usually skip the mustard but always fetch a few bites of hers.
To clarify, salad mustard only.

I am not a big mustard fan, but that is the classic Coney! They look just how I picture them! I wish I could have gotten there!  Any discernible taste difference between the 2 in dog, chili or the whole package?

Both had steamed buns so you would be happy about that.  No discernable difference in the toppings.  The American had a more charred dog than the Lafayette, but it seemed a little thinner dog.  I think I liked the Lafayette better, but would eat both again.

Steamed bun, they know what they are doing!

Those Coney's looked so good that we had the carnivore version tonight. We used grilled mild Vienna Sausages, with Chili, onions, cheddar cheese, and sweet pickle relish and NO buns. They were great but not as good as Nathan's and buns I am sure.

Ham and cheese patty from local butcher shop topped with a smoked sausage on a pretzel bun

That's quite a sandwich.

Not a mustard fan, but you gotta respect tradition.  The chili is way off, but my version of a Coney!

looks good.  I would eat that plate

These days I can only eat half of that plate.
I would gain a pound if I ate all that. Sad, but true.

Benley--Is that Velvita liquid cheese?

It is French's mustard.
