A-MAIZ-ing

A-MAIZ-ing

I’m here today simply to reiterate my love of MAIZ Mexican Cantina, located in Ypsi’s Depot Town. Our most recent visit cemented our love for MAIZ’s a-MAIZ-ing food. Definitely my favorite Mexican food in the area. I had a hand-shaken strawberry lemonade and shared order of Queso Fundido (half-off during happy hour!) to start, featuring … Continue reading

MAIZ Mexican Cantina

Before we get to the food, can we talk about books for a minute today? Up until one week ago I really felt like the only person around who had not yet read Gone Girl (#FirstWorldProblems). The only books I have been reading for, well, basically the past YEAR have been the first five Game … Continue reading

Beezy’s

Beezy’s

It would be a stretch to consider this post a formal “Restaurant Review.” Let’s consider it more of a pop-in post. I think that’s more in-line with what we’ve got going on here anyways. Last weekend the huz and I headed to Ypsilanti for brunch at Beezy’s. Located on N. Washington Street in downtown Ypsi, … Continue reading

Blue Wolf Grill

Today I wanted to share my experience at an Ypsilanti restaurant that I actually discovered on Instagram, called Blue Wolf Grill. After seeing so many enticing food pictures and reading rave reviews, I finally made it out to Blue Wolf Grill on Washtenaw Ave for brunch this past Sunday morning. It seems Blue Wolf Grill’s … Continue reading

National Championship Bound

National Championship Bound

Didja watch the game last night? Didja, didja? We did. As a pair of Michigan alums, the huz and I were obviously super-psyched for last night’s basketball game against Syracuse at the Final Four. Anticipating HUGE crowds downtown Ann Arbor, we headed just a few miles outside of town, to Aubree’s in Ypsilanti Township. We … Continue reading

Scenes from St. Paddy’s Day 2013

Scenes from St. Paddy’s Day 2013

I’m past the days of getting up at the crack of dawn to start out St. Paddy’s Day. Well, actually I was never really down to do that, usually favoring my warm bed for a few more hours while my college housemates stumbled out of the house in the wee hours of the morning. There … Continue reading

Haab’s Restaurant

Haab’s Restaurant

Haab’s Restaurant is an Ypsilanti establishment, having been around since 1934 (with roots traced all the way back to the 1870’s, per their website!), and I had the pleasure of dining there for the first time this past Friday evening. A Groupon deal brought me in, but I’ll be back with or without a coupon. … Continue reading

Weekend noms and brews in Depot Town, then Novi

Beer Battered Pickles. Sidetrack. $3.95. Score. Tom’s dinner. Out. of. Control. Nachos. My dinner. Black bean burger tacos. Forgot to ask for sweet potato fries! Opps! Got beans and rice as a default – they were still delicious. Beer #2. Beer #1 was a mysterious smaller brew brought to me – I just thought the … Continue reading
