National Chili Dog Day is Thursday and since Detroit is famous for its chili dogs, or Coney dogs as we call them, we thought we would showcase a neighborhood favorite: Lipumaās Coney Island in Rochester.
Tony Lipuma, owner of Lipumaās, joined Tati Amare from his restaurant via Skype to talk about his restaurant, which has been in his family for generations.
Tony says Lipumaās has takeout meals for everyone.
While they are best known for their Coney Dogs, or a chili hot dog with mustard and onions, Lipumaās offer a slightly expanded menu that features things like Greek salads, tacos and homemade soups.
Besides their menu, Tony says Lipumaās stands out for other reasons: āThis place has a vibe, a personality.āYou can get a glimpse of that vibe in the video above, plus learn how you can enjoy a Lipuma meal at a nearby park location.
