Show notes

If you've been around Detroit for at least a minute, you know how important The Clique is. It's this diner on East Jefferson where you might run into everyone from a neighbor to a public official.

Bridge Detroit did a great write-up looking at the ups and downs the spot has faced. Go read the thing.

I'll be honest in that I've lapsed in going since the pandemic. Going to fix it this month. Diner breakfast is the best, IMHO.
