"Platters of tender ribs and piles of pulled pork, slow-roasted chicken and mounds of BBQ wings fill the menu at Slows, a favorite in Detroit’s Corktown neighborhood. Everything on Slows’ menu is prepared the old-fashioned way, over smoky coals and meticulously slowly, just as the name says. Visit Slows at their Corktown birthplace, pick up carry-out at Slows To Go in Midtown Detroit, or check out the restaurant’s newest location in the"

This funky, lovable town has an easily walkable downtown area that will keep you occupied all day. Do some shopping at one of its many fair trade shops, where you’ll find all sorts of unique items."

"You won’t find better eats in this part of the country than at Slows BBQ, located in the city’s Corktown district. Famous for its “Yardbird” sandwich — pulled chicken breast with mushrooms, cheddar and bacon — you won’t go wrong with anything from the menu, including a slew of local craft beers."

"Not your average sandwiches, served in a retro-funky space across from a great playground. Take your food to-go and have an impromptu play date with families from the neighborhood and the nearby Most Holy Trinity School.

"Grey Ghost has got a unique take on pancakes on their Brunch Menu, and we’re dying to try it. Come and check out their Baklava Pancakes, a take on the classic Greek dessert. These pancakes come with pistachio, honey, and phyllo just like the classic dessert, and according to the photo above, they look like they’re drenched in a honey syrup."

"Named after the ghost of the pirate on the Detroit River during the Prohibition era, this restaurant comes highly recommended. Stop in for brunch, dinner or drinks while downtown. Known for its award-winning filet mignon but also has many smaller appetizers and side dishes for the younger ones."

"With the dramatic two-story open ceiling, dark wood and warm colors, this bar is one of the best compliments to a high quality glass of whiskey. Peruse their 100+ selection of fine dark spirits from scotch to bourbon to rye. They also offer cocktail classes, live music, and even parlor game night."

"Liquid fuel feeds the soul too, says Detroit historian Mickey Lyons. My comfort food is usually along the lines of a good bourbon and conversation. Whisky Parlor’s upstairs loft-style bar is cozy and welcoming, and you can often find a great jazz trio playing."

"Established in 1995, La Dolce Vita Restaurant is an award-winning eatery that serves an eclectic menu of regional Italian cuisine with continental touches. The old-world Italian eatery features a cozy dining room with high ceilings and arched windows that flood interiors with natural light and a pretty garden patio for romantic alfresco dining in the warmer months.

"Cafe D'Mongo's Speakeasy is the only place downtown that captures predevelopment True Romance/The Crow–era Detroit. Owner/raconteur /former high-level-Detroit- political-operative Larry Mongo purchased the lounge in 1985, mothballed it in 1996, then reopened it for Fridays only in 2007. It has an interior like a fever dream, the house band plays woozy covers of “Darling Nikki” and Kim Wilde, and the grilled cheese sandwiches are very effective belly alcohol sponges."

"Not your average sandwiches, served in a retro-funky space across from a great playground. Take your food to-go and have an impromptu play date with families from the neighborhood and the nearby Most Holy Trinity School.

"Near Hart Plaza is the International Memorial to the Underground Railroad. Detroit played a very important role in the Underground Railroad. This was the last stop in the US before slaves were sailed across the Detroit River to freedom in Canada."

"Whether you want a look behind the curtain at the home life of one of Detroit’s most famous families or to experience an impressive and authentic piece of period architecture, the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House is a must-visit. The son of Henry Ford and his wife moved into their home on Gaukler Pointe near Grosse Pointe Shores in 1929, and Eleanor gifted it to a trust for the benefit of the public when she died in 1976."

"This Grosse Pointe Woods delight consistently offers some of the freshest, tastiest seafood in town. Co-owner and Chef Vanessa Gonzalez, always a kind and welcoming presence in the tiny, warmly-lit space, tells us that her shrimp and fish comes from the only supplier in Michigan allowed to offer live lobsters. While the bistro offers many different kinds of arepas -- a kind of South American sandwich served in a scratch-made corn bun -- they have cachapas as well."

"This European and Latin-American bistro is a bit of a surprising place to find the area’s most astonishing ice cream treat. Stacked a foot high, Pistachio Perfection, Strawberry Supreme, and Oreo are just a few of the extreme milkshake options offered. Each of them begins with a Belgium dark chocolate-rimmed glass."

"While many of the new Detroit restaurants have erred towards more casual concepts, Prime and Proper exudes full-on meaty luxury. The dining room is a marvel, with a restored marble staircase from the original building, brass fixtures and plush velvet banquettes. Steaks are dry-aged and butchered in house with the modern dry-aging room visible to the dining room through full-length glass windows."

"One of the newer restaurants on Detroit’s scene is Prime and Proper. Located in the city’s new hot spot, Capitol Park, this restaurant is an interpretation of the American steakhouse, with impeccable attention to detail and an in-house butcher. If weather permits, the most romantic spot at this restaurant is on the patio."
