Details to Note:...

Molly Abraham, Detroit News Restaurant Critic: Proprietor Craig Common is the source of the name of this uncommonly good restaurant in the town of Chelsea, where the Purple Rose Theatre and the Jiffy mix company are the other highlights. Open since '91 in a handsomely remodeled vintage storefront, this has what I consider an almost perfect midwestern menu, with a balanced array of dishes from...
