Coney I-Lander
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Coney I-Lander restaurants are a regional chain based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Their signature dish is a hot dog topped with chili, shredded cheese, onions, and mustard. The name of the restaurant is derived from Coney Island, the famous New York amusement park and vacation destination of the early 1900s.
The chain's history dates to 1926, when Greek immigrant Christ Economou opened his first location in downtown Tulsa. The restaurants survived the Great Depression to become a part of Tulsa's history, and remain a regional fixture as of 2004.
