Nearly all Metro Detroit Max & Erma's restaurants closed suddenly on Monday.

"The restaurant chain’s website has three locations listed in Michigan, including ones in Clinton Township, Lansing and Detroit Metro Airport.

Closed locations include The Village of Rochester Hills, Auburn Hills at Baldwin and I-75, Twelve Oaks Mall in Novi, Laurel Park Place in Livonia, Beck Rd. in Plymouth, Canton Center in Canton and a location on Eisenhower Parkway in Ann Arbor."

Not too surprising from my POV. I used to like their product, the long-gone Birmingham shop in particular, but it kept slipping and after a 3rd disappointing meal a few years back I have not returned.

Nonetheless my heart goes out to those employees losing their jobs in the middle of winter.
