It's always a rare occasion when my husband and I find time for dinner out, especially dinner for just the two of us. And it seems that every time we finally have that spare moment to go, we can't decide where to eat! Usually we end up at the local establishment in Lake Ann, the LA Cafe. Have yet to have a bad meal there. But for times that we really want a night on the town, here's a pretty thorough guide to some fabulous eateries.

One of my favorite places, North Peak Brewing Co. in Traverse City. Excellent food, great beer and a guaranteed good time. There are so many wonderful establishments all over the map. I've yet to hit them all!
