I'm with you DET (though not always, I'm one of the haters on the silly too-forced neighborhood naming you guys do around here). Call out bland for what it is, bland, and lame for lame, and pretense when it shows up (I'm looking at you Oakland and your no standing rules). Detroit has a number of dining/entertainment failures, but the suburbs are just SO predictably blah SO often. It doesn't matter if it's a chain if it may as well be, fair criticism is fair. FWIW, I am a big fan of Detroit development. (The city needs businesses and jobs to create tax revenue to support services before anything else. Period. This isn't "beggars can't be choosers", this is "All clear, get out the defibrillator paddles NOW!") So I am not one of the commenters who hates on the new B-Dubs in Greektown. Doesn't mean we gotta love the food and atmosphere... [ExpansionWire]
