Hakata, 32443 Northwestern Hwy., Farmington Hills, 737-7220. It is al- ways an interesting experience to dine at a Japanese restaurant. And even more so when the ring of Japanese au- thenticity is always prevalent. The menu and ambience of Hakata, with its pri- vate rooms, slippers, sushi bar and open dining room, are gracious at- tributes for this honorable food empo- rium. It is open seven days a week. Marvin's Marvelous Me- chanical Museum, 31005 Or- chard Lake Road, 626-5020. Only the huge clock at its outside entrance is backwards. Everything else at this good time emporium spells fun for the entire family. Owner Marvin Yagoda was crazy like a fox when he came up with the idea, but it has become one of very few like it in the nation, winning awards and appearing in magazines and the Guiness Book of World Records. Video games, pinball machines, antique games, unique posters, etc. include an old-time pho- to booth. The party favorite also has 24 tables for lunch snacks. O'Shuck's Raw Bar & Grill, 35450 Grand River, Muirwood Square, Farmington Hills, 474-8484. After 12 years at this location, Larry Sheehan decided to remodel to a Flori- da decor. He has added oysters, shrimp, gator tail, calamari and a whitefish dinner to his noted Sheehan burgers, munchies, chili and popular bar-b-q ribs that had been part of the former O'Sheehan's menu. Import- ed beers, frozen tropical drinks and a selection of island music comple- ment this casual, fun diner. Vineyard's Cafe & Catering, 32418 Northwestern Hwy., Farm- ington Hills, 855-9463. This is a very popular place, especially at luchtime, for dining in after selecting from oodles of fresh salads and sandwiches and taking them to tables or booths. Also from Shirlee Bloom's separate kitchen comes her excellent preparations of traditional Jewish dishes, available for dining in or carryout. She is also available for weddings, bar mitzvahs, showers, etc. at homes or halls or in her Mayfair Room next door. LATHRUP LaFendi, 27060 Evergreen, Lath- rup Landing, Lathrup, 559-9099. An elegant atmosphere, where all areas are a different decor, make up this popular Middle Eastern restaurant. Many of the dishes are not found in too many dining spots of its type.
