Let me recommend: Bill’s Hot Dog Stand in Ypsilanti.
It’s a drive-in. Open your window and eat in the parking lot. Get their dogs with everything on it + a mug of root beer. If you don’t eat dogs, at least get the root beer!!! I don’t even like root beer that much, but I now dream about the root beer from Bill’s.
Absolute reasonable prices, too: got 4 dogs & 2 mugs of root beer for around 10$ total!
What’s your recommendation for unexpectedly good food in Michigan?
Yeah, it is hard to find gizzards on most menus. If french fries are going to be too starchy, gizzards have the same sort of bite-size quality for snacking enjoyment. If you like hot sauce, it works well on gizzards, but imho they are perfect as-is straight out of the fryer and don’t need any sauce at all.
