Brunch at Butchers Unions

The Butchers union is a wonderful modern Gastropub with a meat heavy menu that is sure to please the carnivore in you.  But if you are the vegetarian shouldn’t fret, with brunch items like the roasted veggie quiche you won’t go hungry.

Marché 27 - Tartare At Its Best!

I wanted to share my love for Tartare with the family on a recent trip to Montreal and found the perfect place to bring everyone together to exploring the world of Tartares. Marché 27 delivered. It is a small trendy bar centrally located in Montreal and offers impressive menu of tartare options. You can select your protein such as Salmon, Tuna, Beef, Veal, Duck and more. Then you get to select the Tartare style of tartare you want the chef to use for the protein selection

The Grand Rapids Symphony

Grand Rapids has so much to offer when it comes to having a wonderful night out with friends, family or that special someone in your life. You don’t have to go far to have a “perfect” date night. Anneleisa and I love our date nights at the Grand Rapids Symphony. The caliber of musicians, our conductors or guest conductors and touring artists are world class and critically acclaimed. We are blessed to have such a wonderful, musical, cultural opportunity in our backyard
