Whether you’re talkin’ White Castle sliders, the Coney Dogs at Lafayette Coney Island, or the Chicken Shawarma’s at Bucharest Grill in Detroit, there’s always something special that goes into making their fare. After all, anyone can throw some food together and serve it up, but the great ones pair a proven process and execution with the special ingredients to deliver the best. Special pickles for the Shawarmas? Or maybe it’s the beef? Magical spices in the chili for the dogs? Or could it be the ambiance late at night with other Detroiters. That final, final, last stop.  You can debate the merits of every ingredient for any great food, but one thing is for sure: they’re all vital to the finished product.
