29583 Five Mile Road, Livonia, MI 48154 (Map)

OK all you hungry bears, time to start filling that belly for the upcoming winter hibernation season. You know, the couch potato months waiting for the next summer to arrive.

This time we will visit a good Chinese buffet called Fortune Buffet in Livonia. It is on Middlebelt Rd. at 5 Mile Rd. Just one mile north of the Middlebelt exit on I-96. It is on the Southwest corner in a L shaped strip-mall.

They also serve beer, wine and liquor.

Comments from Molly Abraham

A pretty amazing array of dishes, from the expected Chinese-American chicken, beef and barbecued ribs to much more esoteric items aimed at an Asian audience, makes this one of the most interesting Chinese buffets around. A sushi chef prepares the rice-wrapped tidbits to order at a small sushi bar, and there is also a chef-staffed Mongolian barbecue where guests may put together their own combinations. Noodle soups and the Vietnamese pho are also prepared to order. The buffet includes nearly 175 different choices, from crispy squid and fresh oysters and clams to steamed flounder, crab with ginger and scallions and seaweed salad, in addition to an array of fresh fruit and American style salad makings. At $10.95 for dinner, it's a steal, and the setting is attractively done up in light oak and pastel colors.

If you're not familiar, the bears of S.E. Michigan, and all around the area are descending on our home bar, Diamond Jim’s Saloon, for a weekend for a great time and “lots of fur!!!” Invitations have gone out to bears as far away as West Virginia and Iowa, to Minnesota to Kentucky and all parts in between to converge on Diamond Jim’s Saloon this weekend and it's going to be a blast. We’re going to show all the out-of-town guests just how the Bears have fun with fur in the Motor City!

St. John Lutheran School puts on a fish fry during Lent. The money raised is used for a trip for the kids. This year the kids will be going to Washington DC. The students will be the wait staff with their dads in the kitchen working the deep fryers. The recipe used for their beer battered fish has been the best kept secret. The Church puts this fish fry on every other week during Lent.

Menu:

Deep Fried Fish or oven baked, french fries, baked red skins potatoes, cole slaw, dessert, coffee, fruit punch.

Cost:

$11.00 for all you can eat, served family style.

Time:

6:30pm - who ever is there will be seated together, any later comers will be seated as tables become available.  When talking with our waiter on the 15^th, they serve between 700 and 800 people a night. And they have never run out of fish.

Dennis, Brad, Tyler, Tim and I went on the 15th and the fish was the best you will ever have. So, I thought I would post here to see if we can get anyone to bite! If you have any questions, just shoot me an email and I will be glad to answer them for you.
