From Old Blog - Telly's - Flint 03/18/2011

11/8/2011

 
Last Wednesday, Tina and I ate at Telly’s Coney Island in Flint,
Michigan.
Now you have to understand, growing up in Port Huron we had two
great Coney Island restaurants, one called Coney Island and one named Teds. I
think they were both started by the same family. They serve Detroit Style Coney
dogs, a nice bun, hot dog with a good snap, homemade Coney sauce, onion and
mustard. Perfect!

Around here they serve
something called a Flint Coney, bun, hot dog (Koegels – Flints own dog, nice)
but with this big mound of dry ground beef, onion and mustard. This is what we
would call a loose burger but it is not a Coney Island. We have spent 10 years
looking for one around here. No go
until…

Telly’s Coney Island on Miller Road in
Flint Township. The place has been open a little while but who needed another
flint loose burger trying to be a Coney Island. The building use to be a Burger
King and it still looks like one but was very clean and better than I expected.
They have a nice menu, lots of choices. But we started with 1 Detroit Style
Coney Island hot dog appetizer. What happened they got it right! 


Wow. Someone in Flint figured out how to make
a Coney Island. Well come to find out the owners are from Marysville, a sister
city to Port Huron, so they knew what they were doing. They had owned the 5 Star
Restaurant and we had eaten there many times over the years. The place was busy
so I hope they can make a go of it in Flint. I know we will be back.
