sadly, I haven't been able to find a Chinese-Indian-Middle Eastern-Ethiopian-Greek-Caribbean-Korean- Italian-German-Vietnamese-Polish Restaurant in the area. That buffet would Rock like G-n-R @ the Ritz circa 1992.

Until I do, I usually settle for...

Priya @ Maple & Livernois

Polish Village Cafe in Hamsammich

The Chettinad- 15 Mile and Dequindre

Beirut Gardens on Main in Royal Bloke

Ronin also in Royal Bloke

When I lived in Ypsimilanti I knew all of the bestest places.

I need to find more places up here in Oakland County

Priya is indeed good. There's one in Farmington Hills too. I like Under the Eagle A LOT in Hamtramck. It's my favorite Polish restaurant.

There's a TON of great Thai, Indian, Japanese, Middle Eastern, etc. places in Oakland county. Beirut Palace in Royal Oak is great. Tom's Oyster Bar in Royal Oak is also good if you like seafood. Tokyo Sushi has several locations--Royal Oak, B'ham, and Auburn Hills. Bangkok Bistro in Troy is my favorite Thai place.

But do they have pickle soup?!??!

The place I used to go to that had pickle soup closed and now I am without pickle soup :(

Under the Eagle has dill pickle soup and wonderful beet soup too.

they do indeed have pickle soup. I turned my nose up at it when my gf at the time told me about it, but I ordered a jug of it after that.

So noted!

:)

I might need to make a trip to hammy-trammy to get my fix.

Anyone else remember when Planet Ant there used to be a coffee shop? It's a little theatre now - I've seen some stuff there, nice place.

I agree. I like Planet Ant, though I haven't been there in a while. I've seen a couple of local movies there too.

Linda's Place, at 9 Mile and Harper in SCS, hands down!

The place hasn't been updated in decades so it doesn't smell like corporate greedy stink, just good ol' fashioned decor (which funny enough, the owner Linda has an obsession with Coca Cola and decorated the restaurant to reflect such).

Bread Pudding = HELLZ YEAH.

Also, not only are the goth friendly, but pretty much no preppy people go there, which is a bonus.

You get to know the waitresses on a first name basis.

AND...you can go there, with change, get JUST coffee and there is NO limit. You can sit there for three, four, even five hours if you want with JUST coffee AND they keep it piping hot! Infinite refills, no hassle, no feeling rushed, no need to buy actual food...for like two dollars. Also, they're 24 hours and the most fun place to go when you're drunk. Great for people watching and being creepy.

For the best burgers and selections of brews in my area, plus live music, you MUST go to the Red Dog Saloon, in Milford. They have THE BEST patty melt EVER, and also get extra points for having Stella Artois on draught (and served in the correct signature glass). Red Dog Saloon Website

Dude, I grew up going to the Red Dog. My parents live at Grand River and Milford Roads. That place got me addicted to Jalepeno Poppers growing up.

Edited by Rayne
I can't decide how to spell Jalepeno.

    • So I just got back from Happy Endings and I saw @DJ Saintthere.  He told me that after I got kicked out of High Dive that later on Mike also attacked him, and Mike and his crew were also kicked out.  Then we talked about the scene and possible upcoming gigs.  I hope something comes his way soon, as well as mine too.  With the current economy I think more club owners will be hungry to try more things like goth/industrial/other alternative nights.  I've also heard that GenZ isn't online dating and is actually going out into the world to meet people which may also help business owners, though they aren't drinking which doesn't really help much.  I think more places are going to need to start serving food and mocktails to make up the difference. Then Mike showed up at Happy Endings which I thought was highly likely because I hadn't seen him there in a while, and @DJ Aaron Hingst,@elektrosonik, and his husband Tim were all there too.  He did something else I wasn't expecting...  Which was he actually shook my hand and said it was good to see me, which caught me a little off guard.  He didn't apologize for anything but it's a start I think.  I told him I was sorry to hear about @djpleasurekitten's passing (which I was/am.  Despite the rift that ended up existing between us we were friends at one point.) So maybe he's moving on finally?  If so then I'm glad.  I'm still not sure if I'll ever go back, but it is at least a start, and it's nice to actually see he's trying to bury the hatchet in something other than my skull.
    • Stargate Universe, which everyone said sucked but I'm actually enjoying it? Like there are less jokes, but lots of dark humor, and people might actually die rather than have 10ft thick plot armor?  Yes please more of this!
    • Failbook is blocked so I can't see any of the info. "Oh you don't need to login to view!" No, you don't understand...  This is my /etc/hosts file:   # Block Meta IPv6 fe80::1%lo0 facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 www.login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.connect.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 www.connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 apps.facebook.com12 # Block Meta IPv4 0.0.0.0 facebook.com ~~~~~ A METRIC FUCKTON OF OTHER FB DOMAINS ~~~~~ 0.0.0.0 zh-tw.facebook.com I had to edit it and cut off many lines because it's 2171 lines long and the overwhelming majority is just Facebook domains. Those IPs for v4 and v6 mean they lead to the HTTP equivalent of /dev/null X/Twitter is blocked too.  I need to block Alphabet/Google and Microsoft as well, but they're actually useful for certain things (damn you YouTube and GitHub!)
