October Supper Club at the Historic Majestic Cafe!

After a long-delayed absence of Detroit Synergy Group’s popular Supper Club project, DSG is happy to announce the upcoming October Supper Club at the Majestic Café on Wednesday, October 17 at 6:30PM. As is tradition, a mere $30.00 includes a full four-course meal with tax, gratuity, and non-alcoholic beverages.

“We are very excited to be hosting this event,” says Joe Zainea (“Papa Joe”), owner of the Majestic Theatre Complex. “We’ve always respected what Detroit Synergy is doing and want to have a strong relationship with them. This Supper Club is just the beginning!”

Specifically for this event, the chef has created a very special menu for Detroit Synergy members:

All served family-style by table

The Majestic Theatre Complex is also happy to announce that in January 2008, the theatre will be receiving its official designation as a historic Detroit site. Detroit Synergy is thrilled to be part of the celebration, and invites you to do the same!

The Majestic Theatre Complex has been a Detroit staple for over 60 years now. The Zainea family has worked hard to preserve the beautiful theatre as well as the Garden Bowl bowling alley—the oldest in the country—and have also succeeded in creating a space that has become both a hub of indie rock and haven for local artists.

The Majestic Café is an eclectic bistro featuring Mediterranean and American cuisines in a relaxed, loft-like environment—exposed brickwork covered in an ever-changing palette of vibrant artwork from local artists, floor-to-ceiling plate glass windows looking out on Woodward, and vaulted ceilings with a very open feel gives this place a flair of big-city style right here in the D. And the Majestic Café’s menu makes it a hidden gem.

Typically not considered to be among the “fine-dining hotspots” in Detroit, the Majestic Café can hold its own with many of the more “hoighty-toighty” places around town, and does so with a laissez-fare attitude and artistic aplomb. The Majestic Café invites you to experience fine dining Detroit-style, in an atmosphere that is all Detroit—and feel free to wear jeans!
