Everyone was asked to come to their home dressed for a cocktail party ... and bring the appetizers they would most like to have ... It was a wonder- ful idea ... and certainly more than enough good food to eat from the bountiful table. Bob set the dress pace by wearing the tuxedo he says he rarely wears ... and this was a good chance to get some use out of it. Birmingham tailor Dino Mitropoulos ... who bemoans the way some men are dressing these days ... would have been thrilled ... Almost all the fellows wore jackets and ties ... A couple of sweaters and no jacket looked very much out of place ... The girls were all striking. A lot of dancing ... oodles of conge- niality and laughter ... with Marilyn and Bob making certain that their love of fun rubbed off on everyone. LATEST WORD IS that when the recently sold Excalibur reopens, it may be as a Mexican restaurant of sorts ... If so, it would probably be as an upscale South-of-the-Border operation. One of the new owners, Gianni Belsito, has the high-end Il Posto Ristorante just north of 12 Mile ... so it is hardly reasonable that he would com- pete with himself ... and open another such Italian restaurant nearby, across Northwestern Hwy. in Southfield.
