seafood that came out of it
was thought by some to be the
best in Detroit, while others
said it was the best in the
Midwest.
Dave bought the place first,
and Frank Van Brusselen
joined him in ownership 10
years later . . . Neither had
any prior restaurant
experience.
As the name implied, the
Clam Shop was devoted to
those who believed that all
that was good comes from the
sea . . . The menu featured a
high concentration of things
like clams, oysters, lobster,
king crab and fish, fish, fish.
Lobster was king at the
Clam Shop and the piece de
resistance was the broiled
lobster . . . This was a
1Y4-pound beauty stuffed with
absolutely the most
DEElightful dressing so very
many people had ever tasted.
Oysters in season and clams
were another specialty at the
Clam Shop . . . Like the
lobster, they were flown in
every other day from the East
and at the arch of an eyebrow
Dave would whip out his
weekly price list to show you
that they bought nothing but
quality regardless of price.
Dave and Frank were
equally proud of their red
snapper, fresh pompano, finan
haddie, shad row and king
crab . . . As a concession to
the occasional eccentric who
came in for a steak, they had
excellent New York Strips
and tenderloins of the highest
quality . . . But make no
mistake, they were basically
a seafood house . . . and a
darned good one, too.
MYSTERY MUNCHER
writes . . . "Traveling to
Windsor is worth it for a -
number of interesting
restaurants out of the
mainstream. Owner Lino
Catroppa brings to Windsor
the tradition of rustic cuisine
from the countryside around
Rome at Cook's Shop on
Ouelette Avenue . . . As you
enter, you pass an open grill
where skewered meat, fish
and shellfish flame . . . The
chefs are pasta masters in
this dark, romantic place.
"Wong's Eatery on Univer-
sity is the most poular and
profitable of Windsor's many
Chinese retaurants. The
place is more elaborately-
decorated than the average.
Enjoy crunchy shrimp toasts,
snails in butter, exotic
bluefish, soft-shell crabs, sizzl-
ing Emperor beef, crackling
Peking duck and homemade
ice cream flecked with ginger
Presidential Perch
Sauteed fresh lake perch. Delicate, light, flavorful. An
enduring house specialty of the Kingsley for nearly 50
years. Twice presented in national pride at the Presidential
"Taste of America" in Washington, D.C. Join us for dinner
soon and say, "Perch, please."
We start with homemade linguine,
fettucine and tortellini. All created
from full-bodied semolina flour and
farm fresh eggs. And served with
fresh parmesan and romano cheese,
grated tableside.
But we don't stop there. We like to
tantalize you just a bit with our
succulent sauces accented with a
sprinkle of the extraordinary Muer
imagination . . . delicate aromas
swirling above each dish.

Don't leave home without it. -
Cholesterholics love rich, fatty foods. They can't seem to get
through a day without lots of meat dripping in gravy. Cream
always goes into their coffee. One sweet dessert leads to
another. But the fact is, these foods can increase the level of
cholesterol in the blood which can lead to heart disease.
But there's a way to help yourself. By cutting down on the fatty
foods in your diet, you could reduce your blood cholesterol
level and perhaps reduce your chance of heart disease.
So if you think you might be a cholesterholic, contact your
American Heart Association for a diet good for life.
