Not in Detroit proper, but unique enough and close enough for me to make a [[dry) Sunday Brunch exception is the Sunday Market at Thai Temple aka Midwest Buddhist Meditation Center in Warren. Food is mostly northern Thai, somewhat along the lines of what you'll find at Katoi [[if you can get in!) Despite the flyer, hours are realistically more like 10:30-12:30. https://goo.gl/jyb7wx
