I live in Las Vegas now. I left Detroit in 1961. The thing I miss most about Detroit is Layfayette Coney Island Hotdogs. Their hotdogs are unbeatable anywhere on earth. On Saturday night you could go in there and eat alonside of men in tuxes, ladies in furs and just plain people like me. I sure miss the place.

This is the greatest Coney Island in the world. The service is the fastest. The atmosphere is great for the family. I've been coming here for about twenty years. The perfect Coney is located here.

When ever we were Downtown for a play or some other entertainment we'd always go to the Lafayette afterwards. There is nothing like it. I really miss the food and the atmosphere! Nothing like the Lafayette at 3am! I live in North ...
