Opening soon: first ever Applebee's/IHOP, in Detroit {+ win a $25 gift card!}


This Wednesday, July 11th, Detroit will make history, as it opens the first-ever Applebee's/IHOP co-branded restaurant, at 555 Brush Street (at the Millender Center).

Check out the fun stuff that will be happening during grand opening day:
  • Dancakes will be on-site creating custom Applebee’s, IHOP and Detroit-centric pancakes.
  • Partnership with the Riverfront Conservancy 
    • Throughout the day, a percentage of food sales will be donated to the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy to help in its mission to transform Detroit's international riverfront—the face of the city—into a beautiful, exciting, safe, accessible world-class gathering place for all.
    • The Detroit RiverFront Conservancy (DRFC), a 501(c)(3) organization, is responsible for the establishment, improvement, operation, maintenance, security, programming and expansion of the Detroit RiverWalk and associated green spaces. Through its public/private partnerships, the DRFC will support the development of the riverfront district and facilitate community access to the waterfront.
More details about the restaurant, from Eater Detroit:
Local franchisee TEAM Schostak Family Restaurants, which opened Detroit’s first Applebee’s within city limits three years ago, announced the casual chain mashup in December 2016. The 11,939-square-foot restaurant double feature seats roughly 300 patrons. When it opens completely, the restaurant is expected to serve a limited selection of “guest-favorite menu items from both Applebee’s and IHOP.” The dine-in restaurant will be paired with a quick-service breakfast stand called Coffee Bar by IHOP that trades in coffee, espresso, breakfast burritos, and scrambled egg bowls.

Review: Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins

*Disclosure: I received a gift card to try the new Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. Baskin-Robbins launched its Polar Pizza last month (July), as I talked about in my recent post about them, and because this past month was crazy busy for me, I didn't get to try the Polar Pizza until this past Sunday. My parents and I went to the combined Dunkin' Donuts / Baskin-Robbins near them, in Novi, MI, to split one of the ice cream pizzas.
