yesterdays although
many are still around.
It's funny how you associ-
ate different dining spots
with different phases of
your life. We remember
celebrating happy occasions
at the old Wonder Bar, the
Latin Quarter, the Bowery,
Club Gay Haven, the Sta-
tler Terrace Room, the Gold
Cup Room in the Whittier
Hotel, the Elmwood Casino
in Windsor and so many
others which have faded
away.
You can probably recall
where you went to eat on
your first date — maybe it
was Boesky's or an A and W
Root Beer drive-in. How
about the first time you
went out on New Year's
Eve? And maybe there's one
special place you frequent
with your mate because it
brings back romantic
memories:
- Dining out may be a bor-
ing ritual or a memorable
experience. But either way,
restaurants play an impor-
tant role in the social
scheme of things.
In 1970, Barbara
Everitt Bryant wrote an
article on restaurants in
the Motor City which was
reprinted from the Li-
brary Journal. The res-
taurants of Detroit, she
said, were downtown or
close to it or ringed out 15
miles and beyond in the
suburbs. Practically
speaking, she main-
tained, suburbs can only
be reached by auto be-
cause public transporta-
tion in the city is close to
extinction. Ms. Bryant
focused on the tin city'
eating establishments.
Ponchartrain Wine Cel-
lars, she wrote, is in a build-
ing which dates back to
1882. The wine cellars fea-
tures wine and the kind of
food that goes with it — cut-
let of white veal Cordon
Bleu, tournedos of beef ten-
derloin and noisettes of
lamb with tomato and
mushroom garni. The first
glass of wine, Ms. Bryant
said, was only 35 cents with
your meal and the atmos-
phere is that of a European
bistro.
Little Harry's is one of
Detroit's oldest residences.
It was occupied by some of
the city's most illustrious
citizens and by one of its
best patronized bootleggers.
Ms. Bryant said that res-
taurant has no single spe-
cialty but everything from
the Cornish - game hen to
broiled scampi and shish-
kebab is well prepared and
served. A favorite is the
mixed grill of beef tender-
loin, lamb chop, calf's liver,
sausage, tomato and bacon.
Ms. Bryant was im-
pressed with Joe Muer's for
its flounder stuffed with
crabmeat, whitefish, trout,
red snapper, Maine lobster
and a casserole of deviled
fresh Virginia crabmeat.
The writer said Mario's
is where to go if you're
really hungry and want a
lavish Italian dinner
from antipasto through
soup, pasta and entree.
Schweizer's, she said, is
for German food — sauer-
braten with potato pancake,
weiner schnitzel Holstein
washed down with dark or
light beer-. The restaurant
has been serving Detroiters
since 1862.
Ms. Bryant recommended
Jim's Garage especially for
lunch but it's an excellent
place for dinner as well. Be-
fore you reach your table,
you'll pass a wall montage
of Michigan license plates
dating back to 1910, an old
Shell gas pump, auto tires,
prints of car models and
other memorabilia. The
Swiss onion soup with
cheese and beer is a spe-
cialty and steak Diane with
sauce bernaise is a treat.
Traveling through time
back to 1980, we enjoyed
fine dining recently at L.J.
Loophole's in the
Sheraton-Southfield Hotel.
Our waitress was unusually
frank and advised us
against ordering snails be-
cause they're canned. But
we had them anyway and
we weren't disappointed.
Maybe it was the garlic but-
ter, but we found the ap-
petizer • tasty.
We kept dipping
breadsticks in a Snappy
sauce with chives be-
cause we couldn't stop at
just one. The veal was
sliced thin and coated
with a batter touched
with a hint of garlic. The
broiled shrimp which
came with a zesty,
creamy sauce were ten-
der and well-prepared.
We could have ordered
fried shrimp or scallops
but settled for a less-
caloric dish. Our honest
waitress gave some of the
meat dinners a low rating
and this time we took her
word for it.
The atmosphere in the
dining spot is relaxing and
the decor is in understated
good taste. If you try
Loophole's you'll probably
want to come back for more

Joel Broder, a 19-year-old
Detroit-born student at
Arizona State University,
has produced a 211-page
"1980 Restaurant Direc-
tory" for the Metropolitan
Detroit area.
The eary-to-use directory
contains 150 miniature
menus, eight maps of the
area, 259 restaurant list-
ings and a special bar and
disco section with 64 list-
ings.
The book is printed on
5%x8Y2 paper with a spiral
binding for easy use. Its
index lists the restaurants
by name and address, gives
telephone numbers, type of
food served and at what
times, a location reference,
dress code and price range
information.
