There was a time I was on a big Caribbean food kick. It was than I learned detroit aint really got food like that. 

Well, I've never been to this one, however I've been peepin' it online, so the next time I'm out that way I'll check it: it's in Southfieldlol there arent any good ones in the D
maybe cause i lived in east london and nyc with real proper food
I was just happy this place was open as it is.

mexican town had the worst mexican food i have ever tasted

southfield and joy
The herman gardensI had a buddy that was right off Rutland/Joy Rd.
I forget the name of the projects that was over there. I was a real scary situation in the mid to late '80's:
- Crack epidemic in full swing
- Spots everywhere
- Projects still open
- Murder in the air
- Stick up man working overtime
The murder mac
The herman gardens
only place i really rated was the Ethiopian restaurant
blue nile- they had some really good food
and the cuban spot vincentes- a little salty but saturday nights with the dancing, the food always hit the right spot
other than that, nah
mexican town had the worst mexican food i have ever tasted
and the big restaurants were expensive for no reason...
I remember spending like 300$ at london chop house for food that was just decent![]()

Yea i was too young to see it at its worse but it was still wild as hell in the mid 90s once i started driving.Right, Right!
I could not remember the name of the shit for nothing.
That shit was vicious during the crack-era.
on another note I really really hope people start to invest in Detroit. The property is so fucking cheap out there right now. Board that bitch up and hold. Take the roof off if you have to and pray it become gentrified like NY.

They knocked all the buildings down and rebuilt it. Think they call it the garden estates now. It's actually pretty decent. For the moment
I been pissed since DOT & ETTA'S Shrimp Shack closed off of HOLCOMB/MACK!
Man, that shrimp was CRACK!!!! I was pissed myself.. I need to find another fish spot that's comparable..
Low income i believe. They got some nice looking town homes up in there.Is it still a project or low-income situation. Or did they try to throw some Riverfront style apartment on that spot?
They moved to Ferndale.The Blue Nile was really good.
I believe it was in Trapper's Alley. Is it still there?
They moved to Ferndale.
It will the first step was putting a face of white leadership back on the city.
That was really the sign to me they had beaten all the fight out of many BLACK PEOPLE in the city.
I wouldnt eat not a damn thing out that spotI used to eat the King Fish there...., & why don't you recommend a JAMA spot, it's too easy to be critic.....
