Live In The D at the Detroit Grand Prix (Copyright 2023 by WDIV ClickOnDetroit - All rights reserved.)
From Tati Amare – The Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix presented by Lear is back and the weekend is back with all kinds of fun things you can do downtown. Don’t think of this as just a race. This is an event experience in Detroit. Organizers have even made many of the programming free, so you can enjoy all kinds of fun at no expense. Today, Live In The D went track side to showcase everything happening at the Grand Prix. We got details on this year’s race. We took viewers to the fan zones in Hart Plaza. We found some great places to eat. We also got to speak to one of the racers who has won in Detroit before, and we got a sneak peek of a special gift this year’s winner is going to receive. If you haven’t made plans to visit downtown this weekend to see how the Grand Prix has changed this, you may want to reconsider. Our city is a entirely new experience right now.

It’s been named the best
🍗 When it comes to the chicken sandwich, we all know it’s a thing. Everyone has their own take on it, but only one can claim it’s been named the best in Michigan by the website “Love Food”. Ma Lou’s is the recipient of that honor and they joined us in studio to share what it is they do with their chicken that makes it a cut above the rest.
In case you missed it
🚘 What did he say about hot rods in Detroit? There’s a new show on Local 4 that seems perfect for Detroit. It’s all about turning old cars with a special history into Hot Wheels. I’m talking about those old toys that you used to play with that looked like they could never exist, but now, they do. We talked to the host of “Hot Wheels Ultimate Challenge” about what’s being done to make cars you only think could be toys, actually something you can drive. You have to hear what he said about Detroit and the Woodward Dream Cruise.
🥃 What’s behind the door? In Detroit, in an alley way, you will find a yellow door. On the door is a picture of a beautiful black Willow tree that looks like it may simply be a piece of street art. But, what’s behind the door is so much more. This marks a speak easy in the D aptly named Willow. It has a vibe that will have you feeling like you’ve stepped back in time, but the modern influences let you know this is the hip place to be. April Morton had a chance to go inside and give people a taste of what they can expect.

😋 Breakfast food is a thing. We all know that, and that’s why we sometimes have breakfast for dinner. How often do you have dinner for breakfast? Our sponsor Certified Angus Beef Brand wants you to be inspired to try something new. Don’t think of beef as only something you have for dinner. Their chef showed us how you can enjoy it with a breakfast sandwich and it may have you reconsidering what you want to eat when you wake up.
👜 Clutch. Tote. Overnight. Weekender. Bags are a thing. And, it seems like some people can never have too many because they all serve a different purpose. In this week’s Insider Deals, Tati found a bag that is more than 80% off, and it’s a designer name. She also has a deal on something that may have you smiling a little more.
Just for fun
🤣 Love her or hate her, they say the movie is for you. Have you seen the newest trailer for the upcoming “Barbie” movie with Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, and Will Ferrell?
