Ok, we did the pull-up in Detroit for my birthday at the Peterborough, which is located in the old Chinatown district.
I have seen and heard good things about this place.
I started off with a very delicious cocktail, the ghost.
It was really good.
The cream of coconut, along with the grapefruit juice, made it very refreshing.
We then sampled some small plates, which were very good.
Bou buns were the best.
Then, for the main entries, we got the sesame chicken and shrimp fried rice.
This is where I was a little disappointed, and it fell short of my expectations.
The shrimp fried rice had really bad scorched taste.
Almost like they didn't stir it enough in the hot wok, and the rice burned a little.
The sesame chicken was just ok.
It had a really thick coding of batter.
It's just a tad bit too much for me.
Overall, Peterborough was just ok.
I would not make a special trip to return from Annarbor.
If I did return, I would definitely stick to the small plates, which were delicious.

Upscale new generation Chinese food place with hipster cocktails.
The music was a bit loud but the ambience was good enough.
Both food and cocktails were hit or a miss, like the cheeseburger spring rolls were out of this world but the chow fun noodles had no flavor! I would highly recommend the Ghost cocktail with cream of coconut and elderflower liqueur and the spare ribs.

Wonderful service from our waitress and what might have been the general manager? We had tea, the cucumber salad which was perfectly spicy and savory, the spring rolls woth were wonderfully fresh, and my friend got the egg drop soup which she loved.
I had almond chicken which was PERFECTLY breaded, not greasy or heavy.
It was amazing.
We will be back for sure.
