Any suggestions for restaurants in Detroit open on Thanksgiving? We had a nice dinner in the past at Pegasus but this year we'd like to keep out of the CBD because of the football game. No one in my family can cook worth a shit. Any fellow members ever do the Detroit Yacht Club on Thanksgiving? Thinking about that.
Sadly, the about.com "Detroit guide" is a suburbanite who listed only 7 options - not one in the city. Restaurants also don't appear to be very good at updating their websites.
CaSINos will be open.
The Detroit News had list in the Food section of Thursday's paper.
here is the link: http://www.detroitnews.com/article/2...|Entertainment
We are going to try Mitchell"s Fish Market in Livonia. In the past we've done Marios in Midtown, Moose Preserve in Bloomfield, Mountain Jacks [[now gone), all pretty good. Maggianos in Troy, Buca De Pepa in Livonia, O'Maras in Berkley all have specials and are not listed on the website.
^^^ Ahhh 'sliders'! That ultimate option! While wearing shades of course ----:cool:----
Thursday is not Thanksgiving in South Detroit, er... Windsor.
They are serving breakfast until 1 p.m. at Mickey D's. Yes!!!!
Good answer... bit if he doesn't want to cross 8 Mile... I doubt he'll want to cross the border...Quote:

Happy Thanksgiving Poobert to you&family!
Bo[[w)lings is actually in Toronto or St. Catherine's where they filmed half of the movie. If you were looking for it in reality it is supposed to take place in N Indiana, possibly, Gary, South Bend, or Fort Wayne.Quote:

However, Mario's offers a shuttle to Lions game at the Detroit location. Many folks stay for dinner after returning from the game, so be aware, you may not dodge all the Lions' fans.Quote:
