MUSEUM HOPPING IN DOWNTOWN DETROIT

MOTOR CITY WHEELCHAIR MOBILITY

Emily Obert, who works on accessibility and equity at Ford Motor Company, also gives high marks to the Motown Museum and has a must-stop spot for foodies looking for a fun, accessible meal near both places.

Baobab Fare opened in early 2021 and its East African cuisine and goods have already earned it a James Beard Award and recognition in The New York Times.

“Baobab gets that perfect balance between sweet, sour, salty, tangy,” says Obert. She recommends the samaki: lightly fried fish with sauteed onions served with fresh corn salad, fried plantains, stewed yellow beans and coconut rice or spiced rice pilau.

“Everything on the menu is delicious.”

Aside from a tiny slope at the front door, Emily Obert gives Baobab high marks for overall inclusion based on accessible restrooms and an open floor plan that has lots of accessible seating.
