On the cover
The Detroit Foundation Hotel ’ s Apparatus Room offers New American cuisine — apt , given that the hotel and restaurant itself represents a sort of revival . Formerly the headquarters of the city ’ s fire department , the renovation incorporated original touches from the 1929 building with standout updates . The result is an homage to a city that is reinventing itself . “ We hope the way we inspire our team to grow and develop , while giving back the best we can to our guest , will be what in the long run makes the restaurant a future Detroit icon ,” the restaurant says . Read more about the restaurant and others in this month ’ s F & B focus on casual luxury ( page 22 ).
