]]> Comment on Dining in Harbor Country, Michigan by Hollis http://noolives.com/2008/06/12/dining-in-harbor-country-michigan/#comment-226 Hollis Sun, 05 Apr 2009 12:36:18 +0000 http://noolives.wordpress.com/?p=335#comment-226 Having my second weekend in Lakeside, MI, this year and continuing to dine at old familiar and new places, I saw your posting from last year. Looks like you might be coming again. Definitely try Gulistan--I've found a new favorite food there, "Ispanic" which is chickpea patties (and believe me, I tried these only because of raves from friends) in a mango-something sauce with spinach. To die for. I was talked into going back to Timothy's in Feb., but still don't find it worth the trip. My more upscale favorite is Soe in Sawyer. I love the space there, they (along with Timothy's) have these weekday $ 10 dinners, but theirs are much better. I had a wild salmon salad there for lunch that was good--with blueberry pomegranite dressing! They always have local produce deserts like pie and cobbler with some delicious fruit. Have fun.

Now I see, perhaps everyone has gone gaga over it due to winter malaise. I’m truly baffled by the praise for this self-indulgent painfully sentimental film.

They had to pull the table out for me to get seated because there was not enough room in between tables. It was a bit of a nuisance when I had to go to the bathroom and there was no maitre d to pull the table for me. My butt ended up in my neighbor's soup. Considering how much an entree costs in some upscale restaurants, you'd think they'd factor in just a few more square feet for the comfort of their patrons.
