jacent courtyard for appetizers

27909 Orchard
Lake Rd., Farmington Hills, 553-
7000. One of the area's finest
seafood houses is a low-keyed
secret, D. Dennison's is on a par
with many higher-touted
restaurants whose fish entrees
are a main feature. The fresh
water-farin' creatures that end
up at both its Livonia locale
bring a lot of tasty happiness
to many.
Ginopolis',

troit's favorite celebrity
restaurants, Ginopolis', owned

gomery Inn ribs and choice se-
lections are Ginopolis' favorites.

able plus off-premise service
for all types of catering.

They said Marvin Yagoda was
crazy when he came up with
the idea, but his fun emporium,
with 24 tables for lunch snacks
too, is among few like it in the
nation. Video games, pinball
machines, antique games,
unique posters, artifacts, etc.
including an old-time photo
booth that works, make up this
party favorite where both
youngsters and adults get
equally involved.
Peacock Cafe & Grill, 25938
Middlebelt Road, Farmington
Hills, 476-1750. Another of
those good and clean neigh-
borhood restaurants that fea-
ture home-style cooking, fresh
seafood and a variety of dish-
es all low prices. A new, ever-
evolving and well diversified
menu for all tastebuds is fea-
tured. True family dining here
is nestled at the corner of a well-
trafficked shopping center.
Roman Terrace II,
37610 W.
12 Mile, Halstead Village Plaza,
Farmington Hills, 553-0080.

that gutted this very successful
Italian restaurant, owners Bob
McDonald and Harry Phinney
have opened Roman Terrace II.
It features the same fine menu
as on Orchard Lake Rd. & 12
Mile, plus executive its chef as
before the fire, and many of the
previous waitstaff to provide
the enjoyable food and service
customers always expected.
