LITTLE DADDY S JUST KEEPS
GETTIN' BETTER...

50 New Break fast Lunch and Dinner Specials

morel mushrooms and tomato beurre
fondue.
And have you even eaten almond
crusted calamari appetizer? ... It's a
good Boocoo innovation.
Boocoo is open six days ... lunch,
Monday-Friday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.;
dinner, Monday-Thursday, 5 p.m. to
10 p.m., Friday and Saturday 5 p.m.

The ability of Boocoo to only get
even better as time goes on is an impor-
tant indication of its present worth.
ANOTHER BIG EVENT for
Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer
Institute was its 22nd annual shindig
... this year a "Supper Club Soiree"
dinner at Marriott's Wintergarden
Ballroom at the Renaissance Center in
Detroit.
More than 700 attendees heard
comedy and songs intermingled with
short speeches ... Doug Shubot
stood out with his one-of-a-kind
tuxedo shirt as wife Sydell was her
usual ravishing self ... Sweet Betty
Ellias and hubby Frank as handsome
a couple as there is ... Howard
Camden with a brown bag that folks
thought he'd brought to take home
some food but it was just with some-
thing inside for someone at the affair
... And besides, wife Lili would hit
him over the head ... Eunice and
Milt Ring no doubt talking it up big
for the upcoming Partners group of
young professional volunteers' annu-
al golf classic and its ball a week
later ... Foundation of the Arts
director John Bloom everywhere.
HERE'S ONE youngster who cur-
rently has little interest in following
the professional path of his day.
Dental doc Mark Birnholtz brought
12-year-old Jordan Birnholtz to the
office on "Bring Your Child To Work
Day" ... When the day was over, Mark
asked him what he thought of dad's
job and Jordan replied, "It sure is
monotonous!"
He is the son of Mark and Paula
Birnholtz ... and will be bar mitzvah
in June.
WHEN IT COMES to keeping up
with the times, Executive Chef Mary
Brady, owner with husband Tom of the
fine Diamond Jim Brady's Bistro in
Novi's Town Center, stays on the ball.
Atkins and South Beach items pre-
pared by a highly talented chef like
Mary have a great taste because of per-
sonal stylings on the low-carb entrees
... She is one of very few women exec-
utive chefs who are certified by the
American Culinary Federation.
Mary's recent addition of South
Beach sea bass amandine, Arctic char a

la Dr. Atkins, grilled halibut Veracruz
and citrus salmon, are prepared by her
with low-carb vegetables and no
starch, which really cuts the numbers.
GOOD SERVER Dept. ... Roxanne
Cook at Bacco Ristorante on
Northwestern Highway in Southfield
... She'll even sing for you ... and her
service, efficiency and courteous per-
sonality are all tremendous assets.
IT'S NOT EVERY golf nut that
can have a tournament named after
him ... Especially one where it takes a
special invitation to be a player.
The first Lee Hoffman Golf
Invitational will celebrate his 80th
birthday June 5 at the Farmington Hills
Golf Club ... given by his and wife
Nettie's children, Beverly and Stuart
Feldheim, Alan and Debra Hoffman,
and Renee and Mark Feinberg. Will
Lee play in it? ... Sure thing, even with
his two knee replacements_
WHEN IT OPENS June 2 ... by
Frank Taylor, Robert Porche and
Alexander Zonjic, Seldom Blues in
Detroit's Renaissance Center will seat
300 in a 15,000-square-foot space ...
plus a private dining area for 50 more
and a chef's table that'll overlook both
the kitchen and Detroit River.
Frank is co-owner of Sweet Georgia
Brown and, as president and CEO of
Seldom Blues, has a lot of experienced
expertise in the operation of a restaurant
... The food will be continental cuisine
with French influences ... and music by
nationally-known entertainers.
NEW OPENINGS will include a
gigantic Best Buy on Orchard Lake
Road south of -14 Mile, next to K-
Mart ... and a T.G.I. Friday's in the
shopping center with Home Depot,
Sam's Club, etc. on Northwestern

all in Farmington Hills.

agency that provides food from restau-
rants and caterers for the needy,

JEWELRY DEPT ... There's an
engagement ring now on the finger of

Do" date sometime the end of this year.
