From the North End to The Riverfront, East and West of Woodward, Detroiters hold their restaurant allegiances dear. The debate over the best coney dog or pizza have long been fought in the ink of The Detroit Free Press and News, on factory floors approaching lunchtime, and among authors, historians, service industry workers, and tour guides alike. Join Detroit History Tours as we explore the history of the “Big Three” of classic food in the Motor City - Fish, Burgers, and Pizza - Plus, a generous take home serving of the best darn Coney Island Chili Sauce this city has to offer (heck, it took the family over a century to perfect it!)On this 3.5-hour tour guests will enjoy a progressive-style dinner, with plenty of food to fill even the hungriest bellies. Together with your guides, you’ll explore three (3) restaurants that have become classics in their respective cuisines. This tour is available exclusively on weeknights to provide guests with the best access to the owners and staff that make these locations so special.  You’ll learn the secret of the ‘you buy, we fry’ establishment, along with the post WW2 fish and chips boom before sampling fresh fried perch. We’ll dive into the history of a famed greasy spoon, enjoying a steamed burger, and learning the story behind their odd choice of bun. And, we’ll visit a Detroit institution where we’ll indulge in Detroit style pizza still made in the original pans. From Michigan food trivia to cooking demonstrations, feasting on Detroit favorites, to discovering the history of prohibition era soda pop, you’ll learn about our delectable past as you travel via luxury motor coach from location to location. We look forward to welcoming you, Bon Appetit!Your ticket price includes all food (plus a 20% tip at each restaurant), samples, and non alcoholic drinks. Alcoholic drinks are available for purchase at one of the three stops at the guest’s own expense.Special dietary requests can not be accommodated on this tour.<ul><li style="list-style-type:none;box-sizing:inherit">If you suffer from food allergies, have a restrictive diet, or are a picky eater this tour may not be right for you.</li></ul>This tour is designed for adults with a sense of adventure and fun, however any guest over the age of 16 is welcome to join as long as they are accompanied by an adult over 21 years of age.
