Grand Rapids, MI) — In all our travels, we’ve lamented that Grand Rapids lacked one big city feature: a combined space market like NYC. Traverse City, MI) After a full day of debauchery, we are so looking forward to a leisurely Sunday brunch at Green House Cafe. Only problem.

He Fed, She Fed: Santiago's Bodega
http://www.hefedshefed.com/2015/01/santiagos-bodega.html
Santiago’s Bodega makes their own Sangria, so we opt for a pitcher to share. It is deliciously refreshing, with virtually no sweetness and a light body. Chunks of green apple add just an extra touch of tartness. Off to a good start! While we sip, we peruse the menu and strategize. A parade of small plates seems the way to go. I’ve never had beans as good as these. Our final choice, Brussel Sprouts, are an unnecessary addition. Already, we are nearing fullness. Drizzled in balsamic vinegar, sprink...We fi...

He Fed, She Fed: January 2015
http://www.hefedshefed.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Our vacation is nearing the finish line. It’s been a relaxing week in Key West, and already I’m dreading a return to the snow and cold of Michigan. So what better way to store up some heat than spicy food? We are greeted somewhat cursorily and asked if we have reservations? While Juliet sips a local favorite, Corona, I decide to lager it up with cold bottle of Chang. I’m not really a fan of Thai beers, but they do pair well with spicy foods. Speaking of which, we need an appetizer! Key West, FL) — ...

He Fed, She Fed: Burger Showdown: Stella's Lounge/Wealthy St Station
http://www.hefedshefed.com/2011/05/burger-showdown-stellas-loungewealthy.html
Burger Showdown: Stella's Lounge/Wealthy St Station. Against Wealthy Street Station. I am guilty of instigating this burger-on-burger showdown. A few months ago, the brilliant chef at Reserve. We seek the #BestBurger. Nowhere to be found. Maybe it’s in there, but I’m not detecting any salt component whatsoever. For this underwhelming burger extravaganza, Stella’s clearly wins out over Wealthy Street Station, only for quality of meat, if not taste. In Grand Rapids, Reserve’s burger remains...In the end, n...

He Fed, She Fed: Newport Mansions Wine & Food: Part 1
http://www.hefedshefed.com/2014/11/newport-mansions-wine-food-part-1.html
Newport Mansions Wine and Food: Part 1. I’ve become somewhat jaded and, frankly, bored by the all too familiar carnival of chefs, sommeliers, and gorgeous scenery. However, when Juliet invites me to Newport Mansions Wine and Food, I’m surprisingly excited to explore a new place. Lovecraft was born, lived, and died in Providence, Rhode Island. So, after a couple beers at Union Station Brewery. We sit near the back. In front of each of us is a placemat upon which has been placed seven wine pours—...Grand R...

He Fed, She Fed: Union Station Brewery
http://www.hefedshefed.com/2014/10/union-station-brewery.html
Providence, RI) — It’s our first day in Providence, having landed at the airport without incident and hungry for a bit of lunch after checking into our hotel. Downtown is a short walk away, where Google Maps leads us to an alehouse called John Harvard’s or Union Station Brewery. Depending on which website you believe. Nevertheless, we’re curious to see what kind of beer they make in these parts and the open patio under the cloudless, sunny sky seems like just the place to cool our heels. The bartender re...

He Fed, She Fed: Cygnus 27
http://www.hefedshefed.com/2010/11/cygnus-27.html
Grand Rapids, MI) Earlier this year a friend mentioned that Cygnus 27. Perched high atop the Amway Grand, offered a Sunday brunch. We checked out the enticing menu online then made reservations (courtesy OpenTable.com, of course), looking forward to a respite from our usual dinner plans. It had been nearly 8 years since we'd visited the restaurant and were looking forward to the new design. Immediately, before our server can arrive, we hear a loud noise. SQUAWK! What the hell is that? Half-heartedly, I s...

Providence, RI) — We’ve settled in to our hotel room after a nice afternoon of strolling through Swan Point Cemetery, where we encountered a cargo van filled with heavy metal enthusiasts and a curious biker at H.P. Lovecraft’s gravesite. There is still some time before dinner; our OpenTable reservations at Local 121. Finally, I am pleased with myself to have chosen vegetarian.until I glance to my left. The lady at my elbow has ordered the rabbit, and it looks incredible, done three ways. Alas...We arrive...
