Duluth, Minnesota (!)
July 21st, 2010
A previously scheduled trip up nort, as folks say in the upper Midwest, also brought me to a previously unknown coney outpost in Duluth.
ordered: two coney islands, as they're known
winner: the decor. Second place goes to the ambiance. We ate and watched the owners/regulars drink coffee, mock each other, and consume a huge basket of coneys.
I'm sad to report that the coneys were not ... great.
please note: according to one of the yellowed clippings on the wall, the recipe for Greek chili was passed from Aristotle to Alexander the Great. This is possibly the most ludicrous--and THEREFORE THE MOST AWESOME--bit of coney lore I have encounter yet.
