From a culinary standpoint, this may not be a reason to do handstands and shout for joy.
But from a symbolic standpoint, there may be more reason to clap your hands.
JC Reindl of the Detroit Free Press reports that the chain, Applebee's, has proposed opening its first restaurant in Detroit at the corner of 8 Mile and Woodward in the Gateway Marketplace where Meijer operates.
Reindle writes that it is the latest sign of Detroit's economic rebound. The restaurant could open by year's end.
