In 2015, Steve Savich and his father opened the first Mr. Miguel’s in Warren.  The name Mr. Miguel’s pays homage to the first restaurant he opened, with his father in 2008. You may have heard of this restaurant - Mr. Mike’s on Wayne Road in Westland. Today there are 4 locations in including  Brownstown which opened in 2021, Livonia which opened in 2022,  and Utica which just opened in April of this year. 

I guess just like on St Patrick’s Day everyone becomes a little bit Irish, on Cinco de Mayo we all tend to become a little bit Mexican and this week we are doing it in Brighton at El Arbol Taqueria.

The Super Bowl is this weekend, and of course we are making some of our favorite fun food. Who doesn’t like nachos? Traditionally nachos are chips, cheese, maybe some meat or chili baked and topped with lettuce, tomato, onions etc. Nachos don’t have to be tortilla chips, cheese and seasoned ground beef. They can be so much more than that, and in our house they are! We have a favorite saying that applies to lots of things, not just food: NO RULES!

This week’s post has been quite the learning experience for us. Like so many other people that live in the suburbs of Detroit, when we are downtown and have a craving for Mexican food, we would end up at the usual suspects Mexican Village, Xochimilco or Mexicantown.

This week we decided that Mexican was in order and we are featuring a new restaurant that opened late last year, Mr. Miguel’s. This is a place Teresa and I have been talking about since it opened but had not been able to get to since they don’t open until 2PM Mon-Thurs, but we were finally able to made it happen.

It’s me…your favorite Realtor and lover of all food (well almost all food) here with this weeks Fun Food Friday. With yesterday being Cinco de Mayo, it got me thinking about Mexican food. I know everyone has their favorite Mexican restaurant, as we do, but if you want to try something new give Condado’s in Midtown Detroit a try.
