Faisal Ali, originally from Yemen, has been working at Lafayette Coney Island for 21 years. In between impressively fast coney preparation and delivery, he entertains patrons by performing gravity defying parlor tricks he learned from his grandfather.

Faisal also has a [fairly popular Instagram feed](http://instagram.com/faisal%5F%5Fali?ref=dailydetroit.com) that gives viewers a fun look into the life of a coney dog architect.
