DETROIT— The annual Marche du Nain Rouge takes place this Sunday, and it promises to be bigger and better than ever, as Detroiters gather to parade down the street in costumes to chase out the evil imp just in time for spring. It starts at Traffic Jam & Snug at 1:00 p.m., and since he's given Detroit such a nasty winter this year's chase should be particularly passionate. [Metro Times]
DOWNTOWN—Comerica Park is changing the food game with their announcement that the new season will feature a poutine hot dog. Yes, a hot dog topped with gravy and cheese curds and french fries. For real. It's official, the Canadians are taking over everything, even the classic American pastime known as baseball. [Crain's]
SOUTHWEST—Looks like El Barzon is ushering in spring with some tequila (is there a better way? Likely not) as they're hosting a tequila crafted cocktail dinner on March 27th, including five courses paired with cocktails. [Freep]
