Chi-Chi's Restaurant, Livonia,MI

A few weeks ago my friend texted me and told me she had seen this location was open while driving home. Naturally, I had to check it out. A week later or so I gathered my friend and we checked it out.

Status:
Demolished

Entry Difficulty: Well, it was easy for us to get into, but as of last night its been sealed up.
Air Quality: Damp, dusty and musty. Bad.
Security Level: The hole in the door was boarded up, but before my visit someone (likely scrappers) had ripped the board off of the door. Its since then been sealed up.
Decay/Destruction: It has been completely destroyed by water damage and scrappers.
Artifacts: Not too much left. Its been pretty much ruined by water damage and scrapped to hell.
Enjoyed: It was a fun exploration.
Danger: I got cut on broken glass and stepped on a light bulb. Its got all sorts of live wires and lights hanging.

Posted: No.
Patrolled: No, but its just off the express way on a busy road.
Personally Visited: Yes.

The exterior:

Our entrance/exit:

The bar:

The dining room(s):

This particular section was roped off with caution tape. I have no idea why.

At last, the kitchen. We didn't explore this too much because it was so full of rubble. Shown in the first photo was a huge hole in the roof about 4 foot wide where all that insulation was hanging. Scrappers stole an AC unit, I think.

Overall this was a great exploration. There was the strange feeling of being watched, and by the time we found out that there was still electricity we were on our way out. One of the bathrooms (the ladies room, i believe) was really weird. It was secured, but it was secured from the inside. I believe there might have been someone living in there.
