    I laughed out loud at “Cold product”, even with cold drinks they’re referencing “Lose yourself” lol

      It’s right in downtown and it’s more of a wing of another restaurant. When I went it was packed with spaghetti, more than I wanted to eat.

        More importantly right next to 100+ year old music venue…

        Like sure, it’s Detroit, but probably one of the few expensive locations.

          Tell me you don’t know anything about literally every metropolitan area on the planet without telling me you’re a fucking rube.

            Large swaths of Detroit aren’t that great. That’s probably true of any major city, but Detroit is 143 square miles. Manhattan is 23. Thar creates a lot of opportunity to be in a not-so-great part of a city whose population is roughly a third of what it was 70 years ago. The city runs a land bank you can buy decapitated houses from for $1k. Even on the retail market, large swaths of the city are very cheap.

            All that said, Detroit might finally be turning around. The city experienced its first year of population growth in forever last year and more and more people I interact with are either visiting the city and spending money there or are actively considering moving there. There are also a lot of Detroit run small businesses popping up and the region has a strong “buy local” vibe to it.

            /Someone who lives nearby and would love to see the city succeed.

              Damn, are there a lot of houses that had their heads cut off?

      Well let’s see… 9 USD is about 62 DKK.

      Honestly… Not bad. That’s about the same price as a sharawma box here in Copenhagen, maybe even a little cheaper, depending on the quality. If I want to buy a burger from a food cart, just a single burger at the street food place near the Nørrebro shopping center, that’d be 85 to 90 DKK, which is about 13 USD for a burger.

      The Iranian food stand sells food for 120 DKK per portion, or 16 USD. Pizzas in the neighborhood are between 90 and 110 DKK. A single durum shawarma is about 70 DKK. You get the idea.

      Depending on the quality of the spaghetti, I’d go grab some regularly. Compared to what I’m used to, that’s a pretty decent price.

      Of course, McDonald’s and Burger King are cheaper, but… That’s just trash. Some real trash.

    I wouldn’t recognize him. Dude looks like he is on something … or just being a takeout employee.

    Do y’all really think this is a real image?

    Edit: since people don’t follow the chain and see I was informed it was real… I now know it is real and that’s cool. Don’t be a bully like @[email protected]

          No you’re right everything is fake and staged. You’re actually in the matrix. Don’t go to work tomorrow or the next day or the day after that. They can’t actually do anything because nothing is real. This is all a simulation. Just sit in your house don’t contact the outside world, it’s the only way to exit. You can do this Alex we’re all rooting for you.

      As if “Do y’all really think this is a real image?” Isn’t condescending. “You fools, I know a fake image when I see one everyone else is susceptible to being duped but me!”

        Thanks for the complete rewriting of my comment to clearly show my exact nature.

        Why are you upset, and what’s with the continued harassment over nothing that matters to you? Something @[email protected] already showed me was really true, to my original disbelief…

      It was a publicity stunt to drum up business for the restaurant. Stars that open businesses often make appearances to get people to think they might see them there

    I wasn’t impressed with it. It was fine but it’s just spaghetti.
