It was the 1930s and Six Mile and Conant was like any street corner in Detroit… people walking to the market, neighbors helping neighbors, and friends meeting at the local gathering spot now known as Buddy’s. Buddy’s existed as a “blind pig,” skirting the State and Federal laws that governed the on-site sale and usage of alcohol. Booze was available there. The owner at the time was August “Gus” Guerra.

All four of us had a cocktail (those perfectly clear square ice cubes are awesome!) followed by the Tuscan tasting menu and wine pairing. We had all been to O&R several times before, for both regular dinners and tasting menus. The entire experience has always been exceptional, and last night was no exception. The food, atmosphere, service...everything was terrific. We commented that it is our favorite Detroit restaurant, which is saying something given the revised Detroit dining scene. Simply Wonderful, as usual!!
