>>Last May the owner of a chain of 15 restaurants called La Shish was indicted for tax evasion, accused of using a double set of books so he could funnel some $20 million to Hezbollah.<<
We used to LOVE to go to La Shish. The atmosphere is really cool and you can watch them make pita right near the tables. My girls always thought that it was where Jasmine from Aladdin lives.
When this story broke, it ended our eating there. If anyone is north of Detroit and would like the same great food at a cheaper price and NOT supporting terrorists, go to the Meer at 16 mile and Dequindre. It is owned by Chaldean Catholics in the area. Ask for Moe.
Ever been to 'Ikes's' on Van Dyke and about 17mile?
I make my own falafel.
Good tip, thanks...
Dearborn is my home town and that of Henry Ford... I used to bicycle around the old Ford mansion long before it was ever a tourism interest by the stinky old Rouge River...
Last time I visited the area, I went to Greek Town... The food was fantastic and the Cypriot beer was one of the few I will actually drink...
What really bugged me was the patrols of Wayne County sheriff's deputies walking the beat downtown Detroit in gangs of six or seven. Why not Detroit PD??? Have things gotten so bad that the municipal police have just walked away? (Detroit is another Democrat corrupted filth pit.)
Another place I love is Frankenmuth. That family style, all you can eat chicken dinner at Zender's is always a must on my itinerary... Those Germans know how to eat...
I fondly remember Camp Dearborn as a younger child, but it was taken over by the Islamic thugs by the time I got to be a teenager.
The same sort of thing happened to the Greenfield Village. Now instead of actually being able to walk around in some of the old buildings, they have plexiglass partitions and alarms to keep people from stealing the artifacts.
