Delicious and Fulfilling

Majority the dishes we cook always starts at home from something simple. It could be a pastas, poultry or desert dish that can be delicious and fulfilling. The dish I've have made here is homemade mash potatoes with barbecue pork chops and asparagus. I think with preparation and confidences it's easy to create that perfect meal.

Slows Bar• B•Q

Slows Bar BQ restaurant is an excellent place to visit when you are out for a night  in the city of Detroit. My wife and I decided to go there for dinner before heading to downtown to check out the winter fun. The restaurant is easy to find. It has a  retro style look outside and a door that looks like a stack of wooden bricks.  We went early, around 4, because we know that it fills up fast. Inside and our wait time was quick about 10 minutes then they showed us to our table. The atmosphere was great and our waiter was pleasant as he took our order. We both ordered a half of slab of ribs with two different sides. I had the macaroni and cheese and the pit smoked pork & beans. My wife's sides included the sweet potato mash and zingerman's corn bread. The food was great and we had options of different sauces to use on our ribs. The service was wonderful and great the whole time we were dining. I do recommend this restaurant Slows Bar BQ to anyone in the Downtown Detroit area for a place to eat.
