This is on Jefferson Across from Faith Church.
Jefferson is the road that more or less hugs the shore of the Detroit
River and Lake St. Clair. Farther North, it becomes Lakeshore. It is
the road we usually take to go to Belle Isle (driving south) and we
sometimes go to Metrobeach that way (driving north).

Looks a little rough even for a Chinese restaurant.
Nice, colorful shot...
I'll pass on the Fine Chinese Food, though!
Speaking of fine Chinese food, have you been to Kitty's in Garden City? Best Almond Chicken ever!
I'm not sure I would want to eat there...nice shot though. Have a wonderful week.
I don't think the restaurant is open any more. But I thought the sign was interesting--and the neighborhood.
Mary, Thanks for the blog. I grew up in Detroit, but left at the early age of 8. Spent many a Sundays driving past lake St. Clair.
I grew not far from the White Sun and haven't been back to Detroit for over 25 years. Out of curiosity I just googled the name and lane on this page. The restaurant looks the same and still has that parking lot to the right. They served the best Egg Foo Young I've ever tasted.
Ooops… let out the word "up" in my comment about the White Sun restaurant…I "grew up"...
I like Egg Foo Young! I should go back and see if it's even open!!! I was only driving by. Actually, I drive by fairly often, and need to check it out. I haven't posted anything here in a while, but I have pictures to post.
I use to eat there in the 60's and 70's. Not far from Gino's Pizza, My uncle ate at the White Sun one night and as walking out of the restaurant front door, he walked into a Tommy Gun gangster shoot out! That was in the 1940's.
John
That place ain't been open in years and their food was ok but nothing to write home about
They been closed for well over 10 years
My grandfathers old restauant .... they sold out in 1974 .... new people took over and over the years it may have passed through several hands .... drove through the area probably 5 years ago to see the old restaurant I renembered as a kid to see that it was closed .... I would LOVE to go inside to see if it is as I remembered .... good times
