When the sleek new Coney Dog restaurant opened Sunday on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, surrounded by throngs of people craving chili-covered hot dogs, there was no mystery about who those people were or how they knew to go there on Father's Day.

It was just before noon today, and a line of characters, many of them dressed in U-M, MSU, Red Wings and Lions and other Detroit-themed garb, were wrapped around the corner on Sunset Boulevard, waiting for a little Motor City flavor in the heart of movie-making country.

Michigan natives rejoiced on Sunday, when Coney Dog officially opened on The Sunset Strip. The lines wrapped down the block as die-hards patiently waited to taste a piece of home -- coney dogs, loose burgers, pop and chili cheese fries. While some Detroit traditionalists may have bypassed the California-centric additions (veggie dogs and vegetarian chili), all were happy to have this hometown staple in Los Angeles.

In addition to the food menu, Coney Dog also boasts an extensive list of craft and local beers. And good news for late nighters: Coney Dog is open until 2 a.m. Sunday through Wednesday and until 4 a.m. Thursday through Saturday.
