Similar story here, “Goodtime Donuts” in town is owned & run by a Laotian family who came here for a better life. Super nice, I usually order to go but occasionally stay to sip a coffee and chat. SW Michigan is home to one of the largest populations in NA, many excellent restaurants.
My wife is addicted to their crullers.Yeah, I was one of his first customers. After six months, he wouldn't take money for my coffee. After a year, he helped feed my addiction to his chocolate crullers. After two years, I had to go earlier to avoid the lines outside his store.
And I miss all the middle eastern restaurants in the Detroit area.
Emily’s. Sahara. La Shish (Dearborn location).
Bucharest is my favorite
Where is that one? My brother in law is native Lebanese, lives in Bloomfield; I thought I knew all the good places. 😜
They started in Detroit about 8-10 yrs ago, still there (I worked at Henry Ford Hospital…a frequent lunch for us), and there is now one at 13 Mile @ Woodward in Royal Oak. So so good!
So sorry. One thing I’ve learned…..painfully…..is we are not promised tomorrow. When things get a little rocky during treatment and beyond……it’s important to remember that each day. I’ve found being grateful for each day…even difficult ones….is very helpful.
Thanks, having had a couple close calls myself I’ve had a long time to come to grips with mortality, but there’s something different about the surprise of a younger sibling coming down with a tough illness. I need to spend some time with him.
Sorry to here that mate - My dear old Mum survived 11 years after her diagnosis . And that wasn't what got her in the end! All the best.
