GreenSpace Cafe
215 W. Nine Mile Rd., Ferndale
Vegans, we didn’t forget about you. This popular Ferndale destination is back at it again with a short, yet sweet variety of brunch options every Saturday and Sunday, many of which are produced without soy, nuts, or cooking oils. Rumor has it the scrambled tofu is to die for.

O.W.L.
27302 Woodward Ave., Royal Oak
A good plate of chilaquiles are helpful for soaking up booze after a night of drinking or as a filling and cheap, yet no less tasty meal. At spots like O.W.L. in Royal Oak, the layered dish is made up of crunchy tortilla chips, chopped cilantro, and crunchy jalapeños and crowned with a dusting of salty Mexican cotija cheese.

Brooklyn Street Local
1266 Michigan Ave., Detroit
Next to the front register at Brooklyn Street Local are a number of shirts and tote bags for sale, with expressions reading variously "Real men eat quiche," "Put an egg on it!" and the dictionary definition of "poutine." When co-owner Deveri Gifford moved from Toronto to set up Brooklyn Street Local with her partner just over five years ago, few other places were offering breakfast poutine (still, Gifford says, the curds are often inauthentic), which was included as a nod to her Canadian roots.
