Big Food in Detroit

I've been travelling for work the past 2 weeks. I was in Nashville for a few days last week and now I'm in Detroit until the end of this week. Over the weekend, I went with some coworkers to the Eastern Market in downtown Detroit. Eastern Market is a big farmer's market and garden market. I think the Michaganders (as they are called here) must have been expectionally excited for the nice spring wheather because the market was packed. Everyone was buying flowers and plants to spruce up their yards that were just waking up from winter.


It was fun to walk around the huge market. We stopped for lunch in front of the Motown Cafe. Check out the huge burger I got. It was pretty tasty, but really big.



By the way...the people watching was amazing!

Big Food : Part 2.....

Last night I went to a work dinner at a trendy little restaraunt in Birmingham, MI called Toast. As we were waiting for our food to come to the table someone said, "Just be glad you didn't order the salad." We looked over at the table next to us and a woman was eating a salad out of a huge wooden serving bowl. I replied with, "That's what I ordered!" The Bistro Salad was good, but it was embarassingly huge. HUGE! Sorry I don't have a picture of me eating this gigantic salad to share with you, but it kind of looked like this......
