From Polish meal boxes to cocktail kits, here’s how to pretend you’re still eating at a Detroit restaurant during the coronavirus pandemic
Ultimately, your favorite local businesses and restaurants workers will need the support of legislators to save them. But community members can also stand behind the local food industry with their dollars by patronizing those spots that are still open, in the form of takeaway orders. Purchasing meal kits and take-and-bake dinners is just one way to do help the local economy while also keeping yourself and your family entertained and fed during the “stay at home, stay safe” order in Michigan. Below are some of the options right now for DIY-dining and drinking in metro Detroit.
