If You Seek a Pleasant Deli, Look About You

A Detroit Deli

Mudgie's in Corktown

I discovered Mudgie's the old fashioned way, I passed by it while driving through Corktown. As you can see from the photo the outside of the deli has a lot of curb appeal. This past weekend I was hungry for a deli sandwich, and I finally made my way over to Mudgie's Deli with Mrs. DVD.

Soup and Sandwich

As soon as you walk into Mudgie's you are struck with a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere. The waitstaff is super friendly, and after finding out the soup specials we were told that there was also a sandwich available for the state of Texas. Apparently Mudgie's has been featuring a sandwich from every state in the union each week throughout 2012. I passed on the Texas sandwich and went with a half sandwich and bowl of soup, the Barrett corned beef sandwich and a bowl of sweet potato soup to be exact. I was not disappointed, and both were delicious.

Fresh

Mrs. DVD opted for the Madill, a turkey sandwich made with "Neuske's nitrate free cherrywood smoked bacon" and garlic butter. She also had a cup of Peruvian bean and salmon soup. Again both were delicious and fresh. If you look at their menu, you'll see a huge variety of sandwiches and a lot of Michigan products; for example the sandwiches come with local Perkin's Pickles. Without a doubt, Mudgie's is definitely on the Detroit Video Daily recommend list of places to eat in Detroit!
