What's your favorite place/restaurant in the city you live in?  Why do you love it so much?

Mine would have to be Tavern on the Main in Clawson.  They have a great outdoor patio, beer is cheap, and their patty melts are to die for!  I have so many great memories of getting together with friends and sitting on the patio last summer.  We used to do a "Clawon Bar Crawl" that we made up and we went to Tavern, Renshaw's, Moose Winoski's, and Black Lotus since you could walk to all of them.

Big E's Dawg House in Hazel Park on 9 Mile. The BEST hot dogs around, I swear it! You can get potato wedges with the best seasoning on earth and funnel cake batter dipped, deep fried Oreo cookies. Um, heaven.

I love Grizzly Peak in Ann Arbor!  It always seems to be my family and friends go to restaurant.  I love pretty much everything on their menu....

We did that bar crawl a couple years ago - I was Amy Winehouse...lol.

Mine I would have to say, is The Ox - they have this devil's dip there that is AMAZING!!! Sweet at first and then spicy! Yum!

There is a new-ish Mexican restaurant called Las Palapas that we really like.  It serves the authentic mexican tacos that DH loves, and I have really liked everything I've had there too!  Their refried beans are so amazing.

ETA:  I don't know how I forgot, but one that I perhaps like even better is called Marvaso's.  It's an italian place, and they have this chicken/asparagus/pasta dish that is to die for!  They have a lot of creamy bad-for-you stuff that DH doesn't care for, but I love it!

The actual city I live in doesn't have a ton of restaurants, but I do like Poncho and Cisco's Mexican Restaurant.  It's just this tiny little place, but the food is good and so are the margaritas!

Howell doesn't have much thats good.  We have a really good Mexican place - Los Tres Amigos. And we have a good place for breadsticks/lasagan - Tomato Brothers. But for anything special, we go to at least Brighton.  In Brighton it's a tie between Stillwater Grill and Brighton Grill. Brighton Grill has the best scallops I have ever tasted.

The "kids" that started that restaurant used to be students at the high school I teach at.  In fact, I teach some of their cousins now.  Their food is really good and their strawberry margaritas are insanely delicious.  They do not go light on the booze!

I love Las Palapas! It's just down the street from my house! We've been there a handful of times since they opened! Their blue margarita is yummy. My favorite dish is this seafood dish in a pineapple (can't remember what its called). Their beans are delish!!!!

I don't post too much, I get too busy at work but I had to chime in and say that my DH and I finally tried Las Palapas on Saturday and I thought it was delicious.  I can't believe we hadn't tried it before then because it's practically right across the street from where we live.  We visit Biggby & Red Olive all the time... Great food.
