I have never been to Detroit but will be there for 3 days on BIZ.

I love ethnic food of ALL varieties & would like to make it to a few
killer restaurants that are a "MUST GO TO".

Name, approx address, type of food, price from 2 to low to 10 very
expensive.

Thanks

Can't recall specifics now, but there are some really good steakhouses
in Detroit.

When in doubt - ask a man on the street, or a concierge.

Where are you staying? The area is rather large and spread out and
I often find that when people say they are coming to Detroit they
actually
mean a suburb. If you want a listing of everything there is one here,
look
under resturannts: www.detnews.com

It really would help to know whereabouts you'll be. I'd hate to
recommend
something in Dearborn if you're actually going to be in Troy.

Of course, perhaps you really are going to be in Detroit, contrary to
all
reasonable expectation.

Greek Town ? But it's been years since I was there. If you have time

Wherever you end up, if they have any Bell's beers on tap, you're in
for a treat. The regular pale ale is spectacular.

There's a BBQ place in Windsor whose extra hot sauce is punishingly
hot. I like hot, but this was over the top. Don't remember the name,
but it was right in town.

Change your money at the casino. They have the best exchange rates.

I went to this site but did not find anything too exciting. I don't
classify hotdogs, burgers or F&C as ethnic foods when coming from
North America (Canada).

I more correctly sud have used the word "exotic. As in culinary
delights, I can not dine on in Vancouver, B.C. Canada

Have a great day!

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.

I used to live in Warren on Mound Road just north of 14 mile; Larry
Larry and Moe's steak place on 13 Mile east of Mound was a favorite
steak place but I think it's no longer in business. I wonder if
Memphis Smoke is still in Royal Oak; that was a good BBQ joint. There
are lots of good places to eat downtown if you go to Greektown;
Fishbones was my favorite. May I recommend lunch at a National Coney
Island; get the Coney Dog with the chili and loose hamburger meat.
There are a lot of Polish Italian restaurants around Detroit that are
good. The Polish American Convention Center (I think it was on 16
mile in Warren) had a great lunch.

I always find it sad when folks from the suburbs give others a dim view
of Detroit and the many good eateries available plus a pleasant nite on
the town.

As with ANY inner city it would be wise to have some one who is familiar
with Detroit
to be your guide for the days you are here & not one who screams in
horror when nearing the famous 8 mile rd. border between Detroit &
suburbs.

As mentioned there is the one city block of old buildings converted into
restaurants called Greek Town, good food but most have long lines of
awaiting customers -no reservations- plus area is very safe day/nite&
only few blocks from the Detroit River.

You have the casinos in area with buffets which people have told me is
excellent.
Not having a lot of different ethnic restaurants in Detroit is also not
entirely true either.

Hamtramck- Polish- A number of home cooked polish dinners to choose
from.
Dearborn- largest population of arabs in usa your pick of restaurant to
eat.
Mexican Town part of Detroit has hundreds of street vendors selling
authentic mexican food from their homeland but most are also illegals &
none of the folks I know who have eaten these vendors tacos had no ill
after effects.

A number of good soul food retaurants are in area also.
Royal Oak was mentioned in previous post -suburbs- which is a hot spot
for both kids & yuppies and does have a number of good places to eat, my
b/f has work in city over 17 years in family restaurant and also serves
those coney dogs with meatless chili sauce topped with loose meat that
you have to try.

I've included a link to Carl's Chop House in Detroit across from one of
the casinos you might want to try, also look up web site for restaurant
called Detroit Soup Kitchen on Jefferson Ave. - Detroit- excellent and
no it's not free.

Last city of Berkley -also suburbs- has a large population of Indians
and number of good Indian eateries if you like very spicy food.

Feel free to email me if you have any questions as my b/f was
born/raised here in area & I have lived here since 1980 plus not afraid
to cross 8 mile rd. for a nite of fun and an excellent meal & still in
one piece after all these years.
