The recent opening of Dean's sec- ond Sheik Restaurant ... at Laurel Park Plaza in Livonia ... (the other is on Orchard Lake Road in West Bloomfield) ... again brought out much more than was expected by many. It is a great location ... just off the Laurel Park mall entrance on Six Mile and Newburgh. Seating is for about 260 in a strik- ing atmosphere ... The former D. Dennison's locale was completely gut- ted by Dean ... who poured endless dollars into a fine-looking setting. Five golden chandeliers were brought from Lebanon ... colorful murals, shiny brass and copper arti- facts, enlarged kitchen, etc. ... And food that has given the Sheik a Mideastern dining high note. Another opening will be in December, when Dean expects to unveil a third Sheik location ... in the new mid-field terminal of Metro Airport. OLDIE BUT GOODIE ... Three bubbes (grandmas) were sitting around and bragging about their children ... The first one says, "You know my son, he graduated first in his class from Stanford. He's now a doctor making $250,000 a year in Chicago." The second woman says, "You know my son, he graduated first in his class from Harvard. He's now a lawyer making a half-million dollars a year and he lives in Los Angles." The last woman says, "You know my son, he never did too well in school. He never went to any univer- sity but he now makes one million dollars a year in New York working as a sports repairman." The other two women ask, "What is a sports repairman?" The grandmother replies, "He fixes hockey games, foot- ball games, baseball games ..." KORN KORNER ... from Avery Warnick ...
