Detroit
Eats
A
new restaurant that
opened a short while
ago in Boynton Beach,
Florida, is named Detroit Eats
... and already
making favorable
culinary waves as
it satisfies the pal-
ates of many.
Located on
Boynton Beach
Blvd. West, it has
spread its pride
along the areas just short miles
away like Boca Raton and Delray
Beach.
More pride among these
regions is gathered by these
close-by sectors with opening
of a restaurant which brings to
mind a beloved city.
Two former Detroiters ...
Dennis and Debbie Silber write
about “Marc Tocco, whose father,
Phil Tocco, serviced wholesalers
at Eastern Market, and Marc’
s
daughter Ella, opening a great
new restaurant with all Detroit
nostalgia at 1313 Boynton Beach
Blvd., Boynton Beach, and has
called it Detroit Eats. From the
moment former Detroiters like
us walked in, we saw Detroit
trappings in sports and memo-
rabilia all around. Debbie and I
had the wonderful opportunity
of meeting long-time Detroiters
Marvin and Adria Aronovits
and Sherwin and Harriet Wilner,
who have been frequenting
Detroit Eats for several weeks.
The entire menu takes you back.
Starters such as the J.L. Hudson
Co. Maurice Salad, Detroit Chili,
Detroit-style deep-dish square
pizza, Coney Dogs, Greektown
Gyros and, of course, ending
with Sanders Hot Fudge Sundae
made our experience a most
memorable one. Full meals are
available. Visit Detroit Eats, meet
other Detroiters and enjoy great
back-home food. Seating and full
meals are now available as is the
carry-out section. Yes, Detroit
Eats is a wonderful experience.

WONDERING DEPT ...
Where barrister supreme Henry
“Hank” Baskin gets his stay-
young pills.
MAIL DEPT ... From Rachel
Kapen ... “My son Avi and I went
to Val’
s Deli in Crosswinds Mall,
owned by Val Izrailov and Carey
Gerchak. Many diners seemed
to know each other, and it was
almost filled to capacity and very
satisfied with the varied menu
and staff. Avi had Val’
s delicious
hamburger and I the tasty patty
melt with grilled onion rings.
”
DID YOU KNOW DEPT
... Did you know that Buddy’
s
Pizza is not owned anymore by
the Jacobs family ... The need
for expansion money was too
great for son Robert, who took
over when dad Billy passed on,
remained as president, and sold
it to Capital Sprngs and is now
just an adviser ... Thankfully, the
new owners didn’
t remove Wes
Pikula, responsible for the pizza
variations, who has worked for
Buddy’
s over 45 years, or Lara
Radke and others who have
made Buddy’
s a winner.
OLDIE BUT GOODIE
FAVORITE ... “Waiter, this soup
tastes funny” ... “Then why aren’
t
you laughing?”
CONGRATS ... To Lila
Lazarus on her birthday ... To
Marilyn Schuster on her birth-
day.
