Big Daddy's Parthenon,
6199 Orchard Lake Road, 737-
8600. Opa! comes to the sub-
urbs as Big Daddy's Parthenon
flames galore to big crowds
every night. The Greektown in
West Bloomfield is the pride of
Rick Rogow and Tom Peristeris,
whose New Parthenon has been
a Downtown Detroit standout
for over 20 years. The large, ex-
perty-cut and scculent lamb
chops, special recipe Parthenon
cake, traditional Greek favorites,
special salads, etc. have been
winning return customers.
Golden Phoenix, 6257 Or-
chard Lake Rd., Sugar Tree
Shopping Center, West Bloom-
field, 855-3570. Now serving
beer and wine, Golden Phoenix,
specializing in Chinese, Can-
tonese and Szechuan food, is
the same fine restaurant that
had previously been a long-time
favorite on Maple and Tele-
graph. Both dining in and car-
ry-out are available in a wide
assortment of Oriental dishes
for culinary consumption.
Mai Thai, 6635 Orchard Lake
Rd., Old Orchard Shopping Cen-
ter, West Bloomfield, 626-6313.
Those who like the real thing
will enjoy Mai Tai with its very
spicy or non-spicy foods con-
cocted for authentic and tradi-
tional tastes at lunch or dinner.
It presents a casual atmosphere
with seating around 100 and is
open seven days a week.
Old Mexico, 5588 Drake Rd.,
West Bloomfield, 661-8088. Au-
thentic South of the Border dish-
es are big features at one of the
northwest suburbs highly-rat-
ed Mexican restaurants. South-
western quesadillas, chicken
fajitas, mojo de ajo (shrimp pre-
pared Mexican style) and many
more delights including big hit
margaritas are among the fa-
vorites. The very fine Latin jazz
rhythms of guitarist Jose Riojas
are Thurs., Fri. and Sat.
evenings. A second Old Mexi-
co location is on 5 Mile in Livo-
nia.
Ristorante di Maria, 2080
Walnut lake Road, West Bloom-
field, 851-2500. Although it
only seats around 50 people,
this many-times, jam-packed
Italian restaurant might be
called 'The Flagship" of the Va-
lente dining stable (La Suna
Grancaffe and Little Italy). It cer-
tainly is the oldest of the three,
starting out years back as just
a little carry-out pizza place and
developing into a very popular
Italian gourmet-style operation.
Wine is served and Ristorante
di Maria is open seven days a
week.
Stage & Co., 6873 Orchard
Lake Rd., West Bloomfield, 855-
6622. Celebrating its 30th year,
this highly-regarded restaurant
features cocktails and a menu
to satisfy all appetites. Whether
choosing cheese blintzes
stuffed cabbage, pickled trout,
vegetarian dishes, hand-sliced
New York lox, fresh broiled fish
or matzo ball soup, breakfast,
lunch and dinner dining in a
warm casual atmosphere is
Tues., through Sun.
Sultan's, 7295 Orchard Lake
Rd., Robin's Nest Plaza, West
Bloomfield, 737-0160. Raves of
outstanding merit have been
received by Sultan's, where the
price is right for Lebanese and
American food. The original
head chef since Sultan's opened
in 1985, is still in the kitchen
making the authentic middle-
eastern food. Sultan's new low-
priced all-you-can-eat Sunday
brunch and daily lunch have
gained prominence with food
selections for everyone in the
same exotic atmosphere.
