Union Street Restaurant

If you are looking for a good place to eat that will give you a taste of southern cooking with elegance than this is the place for you. The portions are fulfilling from appetizers to the main course plus the drink specials doesn't hurt either. Union Street Restaurant motto is "Best Place to Be Seen" and it is truly a place that I would love to be seen at based off of the food. Also the pleasant waitresses and hosts are additional place because it is hard to find good places to eat with good service these days. Nonetheless, Union Street is truly another gem in the City of Detroit that Detroiters and visitors should visit. Take my word for it, I was full half way through my meal and on top of that, you will enjoy the attic feel of the place as well as some of the signs posted at the bar that you can't help but remember such as:

If your purpose is to get drink to forget than pay your tab in advance. I am paraphrasing but that is the meaning of the message on the sign.

Kingdom

If you are looking for a nice place to threw a birthday party or to just dance all night than Kingdom formerly known as the Zoo Bar is your place to be. It is located in Downtown Detroit at 415 E. Congress. They have go-go dancers as well as drink specials & are on the radio with 102.7 FM. It is truly great setting for singles but be prepared for it to be packed on the dance floor but come ready to have fun. This is not for the old though but it isn't for the too young either, it is for the middle agers who are just trying to mingle until they find that right person. So dress to impress people.

Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler) By Marvin Gaye



Dah, dah, dah, dah
dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah

Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have nots
Money, we make it
Fore we see it you take it

Oh, make you wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
This ain't livin', This ain't livin'
No, no baby, this ain't livin'
No, no, no

Inflation no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky high
Send that boy off to die

Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life

Dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah

Hang ups, let downs
Bad breaks, set backs
Natural fact is
I can't pay my taxes

Oh, make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
Yea, it makes me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands

Crime is increasingTrigger happy policing
Panic is spreading
God knows where we're heading
Oh, make me wanna holler
They don't understand

Dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah

Mother, motherEverybody thinks we're wrong
Who are they to judge us
Simply cause we wear our hair long

Don't Look Back Detroit, Keep on Pushing



Detroit as the Temptations hae said, we have to keep on pushing and not look back. We have to leave all our troubles behind us and look forward to a brighter future for not only the citizens of Detroit but the city of Detroit. We have to keep on walking Detroit and keep on pushing forward as we leave our past behind. Stall Tall Detroit and look for a future of Greatness as we as Detroiters strive and survive together.
