On Food Reviews, Prix Fixe Menus, and Hometown Love

Show notes

Welcome to Friday, and we’ve got a heck of a show for you of local Detroit topics.

03:13 – Devon talks about why he needed to share some “hometown love” in a recent newspaper op-ed.

09:15 – An update on the new restaurant by Chef Fabio Viviani in the old Calexico space.

Plus, do local restaurants need to up their game? Do you prefer when someone skips over a bad place, or tells you how bad it might be?

Are some reviews too harsh?

Would love your thoughts in this conversation. 313-789-3211 or dailydetroit – at – gmail – dot – com.

8:47 – With the news of Albena in the Siren Hotel closing, what do you think of Prix Fixe, or fixed price menus?

Feedback as always – dailydetroit – at – gmail – dot – com or 313-789-3211
