Bartertown Diner in Grand Rapids

The selections at the vegan/vegetarian Bartertown Diner were quite delicious today. They have a large following with a convenient downtown location in Grand Rapids Heritage Hill area. Their enticing hash bowl changes every day and very large burritos tempt the super hungry. A definite favorite though was the tofu omelette with a sunflower cream sauce. Can't believe we ate the whole thing!

Marie Catrib's in Gand Rapids

What a pleasure it was to dine at Marie Catrib's in Grand Rapids last Saturday. Everything we had was outstanding....the grilled tuna sandwich with pasta, the handyman's sandwich and the fish tacos were to die for. We also thoroughly enjoyed the split pea soup. They have many items labeled gluten free and/or vegan. Their mantra is "to create, produce and serve super-great full-flavored food that has a beginning, middle and finish to every bite". And they strive for exceptional service. They get it right. Did we say everything was homemade and fresh?  Wow. We loved every morsel. Bravo and well done.
