Warren, huh? I don't get east of Dequindre very often, but here are
some nearby suggestions.

Picano's (Italian) on Rochester road between Big Beaver and Wattles
The Blue Nile (Ethiopian) in Ferndale
Tom's Oyster Bar on Main south of 11 Mile Road in Royal Oak
in fact, there are a bunch of good places on Main in Royal Oak
Loon River Cafe on Mound in Sterling Heights
not ethnic but they have an interesting selection of game

I'm afraid Detroit isn't famed for ethnic cuisine, except for Middle
Eastern,
and I think that's been covered by others. La Shish is good, and
they've
got a number of different locations (although the best is reckoned to
be the original in Dearborn). I think there's one on Rochester Road,
which
isn't too far from Warren.
