FAQ

Where did you take the header-image photo (i.e. the dancing ham)? Aneta Deli (690 Woodward Avenue). One of the best Polish lunch & dinner takeout places. Super cheap for a ton of food! And they sell bacon-flavored pretzel sticks, which are a hit at parties. (Update: Aneta Deli is now closed, as is the deli that replaced it. As of June 2018 the storefront is empty.)
