Make Your Reservations MOTHER’S DAY BRUNCH BUFFET news From 11:00am – 4:00pm Dinner Service Begins at 4:30pm Detroit Water Ice Factory Announces Local Pop-Up Mitch Albom works at the counter of the Detroit Water Ice Factory. Detroit, a city known for its own iconic foods, is about to get a sec- ond dose of delicious, refreshing and iconic desserts — and every dime raised will go to help fellow citizens in the Detroit region. The Detroit Water Ice Factory, which opened its flagship location at 1014 Woodward Ave. in Downtown Detroit in August 2015, will open its second location — a “pop-up experience” at the iconic Franklin Cider Mill, 7460 Franklin Road in Bloomfield Hills, at the end of May. It will remain open through August, after which time the cider mill will resume its normal fall season. The brainchild of author, col- umnist and philanthropist Mitch Albom, the store follows the “Newman’s Own” model of philan- thropy, offering delicious, top-of-the- line food products with the sole goal of raising funds to help others. “After two amazing summers in the city, we’re thrilled to add Detroit Water Ice to a suburban location,” Albom says. “There remains nothing like it in our area — incredible des- serts with all money going to help others — and the kindness of the Franklin Cider Mill in sharing their space with us can’t be overstated.” Besides the newly introduced water ice (an East Coast treat), other offerings include the Motown Twist (water ice in combination with soft serve ice cream), Motown Mash (whipping creams, Cool Whip, chocolate chip cookies and Khalua flavoring), “ice” pudding (rice pud- ding without the “R” in four different flavors) and Mitch’s “Tofutti Pie” in a cup (the pie version of a former offering at Hogan’s Restaurant). All the profits from the Detroit Water Ice Factory will go to helping Detroit’s neediest citizens under S.A.Y. Detroit’s “umbrella,” which includes a family health clinic, after- school academic enrichment pro- grams and placing deserving fami- lies in homes through its Working Homes/Working Families initiative. “As someone who lives nearby, I really look forward to summer nights with a large mango water ice with vanilla soft serve on top, sitting by the rushing water and enjoying the historic cider mill location,” Albom says. “We hope families will come out and treat themselves to some of the 16 flavors. We always say, ‘There are no calories in doing good so you can’t gain weight!’” • Come Celebrate Mother's Day Sunday, May 14, 2017 Pre-order Lelli’s famous carrot cake for your mom….voted best cake in town!
