Something to write home about

Finally made it to Slows Bar-B-Q the other day for lunch after driving past it almost every morning since they started painting the old empty building it's now housed in. Places like Slows are exactly what Detroit needs - the proverbial good food and good service in a great space the likes of which every out-of-towner should be taken.

The mac and cheese wasn't as epiphanous as it was the first time I tried it, but it was still good, and the sammich, stuffed with pork, pickles, and cole slaw was outstanding.

As an aside, I'm normally of the opinion that links pages are anachronisms, especially on business pages, but the one on the Slows site offers a glimpse of the direction in which the city could go if it so chooses.
