I don't know about you, but I eat out more often than I make a home-cooked meal.

Most of the time I go to one of the big fast food chain places like Mcdonald's, Wendy's, or TacoBell.

The food is made pretty quickly and I know what I like to get.

I also have another place serving fast food that's not a big national chain.

My go-to order is two Detroit coneys and an order of chili cheese fries.

The popular food website LoveFood has picked the top independent fast food places in each state across America.

LoveFood made the selections based on genuine user reviews, awards and accolades, and the first-hand experience of their team. They're also regularly checked and updated.

For Michigan they didn't pick one place, they picked two.

This is what LoveFood said about Lafayette Coney Island and American Coney Island.

It's not for us to choose which of these veteran Detroit fast food joints is the best in the state. Lafayette and American – both original purveyors of Motor City's classic Coney Island hot dog – have a decades-long rivalry, and every Detroiter you meet will have their favorite. Try both and make your choice: each of the venues' Coney dogs start with a Frankfurter, which is then layered up with chili (no beans), onions, and mustard. American's offering is known to be slightly spicier.
