Now there's one thing that Michigoinians do crave and that is vitamin C, The long, harsh, dark winters mean that natives can become seriously depleted, and access to fresh vegetables can be difficult. This is where you come in. Now, as a prospective restaurateur you don't need me to tell you how vitamin C packed vegetables such as the sprout play a huge and starring role in basic home cooking in the subcontinent. A good location coupled with a sound marketing strategy could see your exotic offering with sprout-centered menu take off big time.
The only remaining question is will you offer a delivery services across state lines?

Re: indian restaurant
Have you not considered the fact that there are no indian restaurants in Michigan as there is no market for one.
What Detroit area does need is a decent bar to watch football at on a Saturday / Sunday morning.

Re: indian restaurant
You need to figure out the immigration issues first because by the sounds of your other posts you won't be able to open a business here for about a decade. I wold also urge caution. There is a reason why you can't find certain types of restaurants. Most new restaurants that open end up closing within a couple of years, it's a very competitive and difficult industry that is very different to the UK. If you can afford to lose all the money you put in then try when you can legally do it. If you can't afford to lose it all then you may want to think again.

Sprouts being the volatile object in question.
Why Michigan? Chicago would love a good fish and chip shop...

True, but with such a risky venture (if you get a visa because it is risky) you could be out of the country within a year. Again, if you can afford to lose all the money that you will tie up, do it. If not then you really have to think.

Re: indian restaurant
We had an Indian restaurant near us when I was in Michigan....it closed down within 6 months due to lack of customers. Apart from us, no one wanted Indian food.
I'd go with the fish and chip shop

When you say Sprouts ... do you mean bean spourts Yuck or brussel sprouts Yum?
