However, restaurant customers have become more and more aware of menu falsehoods . . . and are shying away from places with them . . . the feeling be- ing that if they'll lie on their menu, it's highly probable that they're not doing so right in the kitchen. Restaurateurs, especially those who have never been in the dining game before, should take cognizance and beware of menu falsehoods . . . it can ruin their business . . . This is also of course, very true for experienced restaurateurs who should know better. If restaurants want to stay in business today, of prime importance is to remember that saying about being able to fool some of the people some of the time . . . Use of plain common sense in preparing menus is an especially good rule . . . In other words . . . say it as it is. ERRATA . . .The Wilshire Hotel, where Ann Sayles Din- ing Room was located years back . . . before moving to Seven Mile and Livernois .. . and today at 13 Mile east of Greenfield . . . was on the cor- ner of Third and Collingwood, not Grand Blvd. A NAME SYNONYMOUS with ex- cellent food and pastries in the Birmingham/Bloomfield areas for over 50 years, Machus Enterprises, has been named restaurateur for the Auburn Hills Arena.

It's an electrifying song and dance extravaganza about a stagestruck kid in the chorus who becomes a star because "the show must go on!" But the plot is just the hook on which to hang explosive, sky-high-energy dance numbers to the songs of 1-19rry Warren and Al Dubin . . . Lullaby of Broadway, Shuffle Off To Buffalo, We're In The Money, You're Getting To Be A Habit With Me, the ti- tle song, etc. The David Merrick musical was the last show directed and choreographed by the late Gower Champion . . . It won the 1981 Tony Award for Best Musical . . . (Ruby Keeler and Dick Powell star- red in the movie version.) With glitzy, glamorous costumes, spectacular sets and an all-New York cast, should be a razzle-dazzle opening production for the Birmingham Theater. THERE AREN'T too many topics George Cantor, Detroit News columnist, WWJ commentator and Channel 7 TV personality can't discuss . . . He can speak on just about any subject . . . among his favorites is the one he'll lecture about, Sept. 29 at Grosse Pointe War Memorial, Lake St. Clair near Fisher Rd. . . . "The Golden Age of Music" . . . George has a world of knowledge about the Big Band era, the classic songwriters of the '30s and '40s and movie musicals that include Fred Astaire . . . He is being presented by the Detroit Area Art Deco Socie- ty . and a lot of folks. will dig into the dusty old trunk hidden in their attic for clothing of the '30s and '40s to wear that night . . .
