CRESTVIEW — On a chilly morning Julia Phillips arrives at Coney Island two hours before the restaurant opens to prepare for the day. Heat from the grill, the bun steamer and a neon “hot dog” sign warms the small space. The smell of freshly-made chili — a staple at the restau- rant — fills the air. Phillips has owned Coney Island at the corner of Main Street and Industrial Drive since 1990. As she sits in her business before open- ing one morning, a longtime customer comes in the back door to slip her a Christmas card and a hug. She thinks back on hun- dreds of memories she’s heard from customers who have eaten at her restaurant Santa and Mrs. Claus make a showing at this year’s Crestview Christmas parade.

The business has a history that extends long before her time. Coney Island’s original proprietors were two broth- ers from New York who founded the restaurant in 1947 in a two-story white stucco building. At that time, trains stopped at the depot across Industrial Drive.

Why We Need ANOTHER VIEW Christmas

Glenn Mollette

erchants around the world depend on the Christmas M season each year for twenty to fifty percent of their yearly sales. The travel industry from airlines to gasoline stations see a nice bump dur- ing the holidays. People are going to buy airplane tickets and buy gasoline. Grocery stores do better during the holidays. People cook more for Thanksgiv- ing, Christmas and New Year. The alcohol industry does well during holidays. Wine, Beer and Bourbon Whiskey all do well nor- mally and more so during December. Charities and Churches enjoy December. People give more money to the church in December than any other month. People who want to give make sure their gifts are given by December 31st. Churches normally have special children and music programs dur- ing the month that increases attendance. Counselors see a spike in activity dur- ing December. More people are depressed during the Christmas and New Year's Eve A Florida murder trial, holidays than any other time of the year. Funeral homes are busy in Decem- ber and January.
