Downtown Detroit's First Mobile Restaurant Doing a Brisk Business

El Guapo, Detroit's first fully legit downtown food truck, seems to be doing quite well for itself. This little restaurant/truck that could had them lined up along Randolph on Friday afternoon, waiting for some southwestern fare.

This is, I think, a good opportunity to editorialize - Randolph has lots of potential to be a lively street, with more scenes like this, but it is lined with parking structures and lots that really get in the way of that scene right now. If the city wants to get Campus Martius and Greektown and Bricktown and Broadway all connected with lively action, it will need to tackle Randolph.
