We went to Q2 Bistro an Asian restaurant at Polaris for the first time last Friday. We wondered if Q2 Bistro had just been open a couple of months… business was not booming Friday night but it was about 8:00. Maybe Q2 Bistro had an early dinner crowd.

No this is not an April Fools joke. Grab a couple of your girls or guys and head on over to Bistro Lepic in Georgetown for their weekly Tuesday wine tasting from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Learn about French wine through a guided sipping session with a sommelier ( a person who is trained and knowledgeable wine). Oh and sommelier is pronounced suh-mal- yAy. Class it up a bit so that you can impress your date or your friends the next time you order wine at dinner. C'est bon! Oh yea don't be a cheap ass and skip out after the tasting. Grab a glass or two and mingle. Who knows, you might meet Mr. Right or Right Now. wink! wink!Don't forget to dress to impress. A simple black dress and a vibrant colored pump or black slacks and a jeweled tone blouse will do the trick.

We enjoyed Dinner at one of our quaint restaurants in Dexter VillageThe Bistro Renaissance opened July 2007 for dinner. It is located at8093 Main Street Dexter, Michigan 48130 (734) 426-4200. They feature casual elegant dining, with classic French and Italian influences. The fresh bread was good. And the pear salad was divine. I chose the veal, mushrooms, and asparagus with a glass of champagne. I was very happy with that selection. My husband said the beef was excellent. He finished his meal with a perfect crème brulee and a Spanish coffee. Our server, Lisa was very professional and quick. When we have a chance to return, we will. My only regret is that it is not open for lunch. We did thank one of the owners on the way out and wished them much success.Click here to search all listings in Michigan with pictures and tours - FREE!Kathy Toth and Teamwww.KathyToth.comReal Estate One
It’s no surprise that a stone’s throw from one of the South End’s most upscale condo developments, Atelier 505, sits one of the South End’s most coveted French restaurants, Hamersley’s Bistro. The two are similar on many counts, along with several distinctions.
Condos at Atelier 505 mimic the availability of tables at Hamersley’s. There are currently two units for sale at Atelier 505 (see PDF for more details), priced from $940,000 to $1,495,000. A table at Hamersley’s Bistro seems just as rare with coveted weekend time slots filling up weeks in advance, and larger parties without reservations being turned away at the door. Price per square foot at Atelier, and menu prices at Hamersley’s, are high for the overall area, but commensurate with your expectations. Ambiance, quality, and experience are stellar at both establishments. You’ll be greeted at the doors with a warm welcome, however, the wait staff at Hamersley’s is p

As we had a good friend in town last night we decided to take him to Paul Martin's American Bistro where we went for the soft opening last Friday (read my review here). This was their first night open to the public and we thought it would be a great opportunity to try out the dinner menu.We originally had reservations for 7:15 pm, and because we were awaiting a third party we had to change the time. Though they were booked up, the staff was very accommodating to our needs and demonstrated first rate service.At arrival we sat down in the bar while waiting for our friend to arrive. I was very pleased to see that they had quite a few wines by the glass and not afraid to put some more pricey wines in that category as well. We ordered the Sonoma Coast Vineyards, Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir ($19), as we had this a while back and really enjoyed it (read my review here). A new bottle was opened for us, and we were not disappointed by our choice. A nice touch is that wines by the glass are served
Paul Martin’s American Bistro is having its grand opening tomorrow, Monday, at Eureka Rd in Roseville. I got a preview and tasted their food at the soft opening Friday at lunch with my husband and a friend.The restaurant is a joint venture by Brian Bennett and Paul Flemming. Executive chef is Peter Serantoni and the Day-to-Day Head Chef is Scott Rose that has previously been at Spataro Restaurant and Bar, and Paragary's Bar and Oven, among others.

The large bar covers a full wall of the restaurant and serves up a long list of specialty drinks made with their own fruit infused vodkas, and more.We were seated promptly and ordered a bottle of ZD 2006 Chardonnay (a wine we have enjoyed many times), and were served bread and butter.

For Food, Drink and ambiance. We’ve not had or heard of anything but great experiences here at Black Creek Bistro, at the corner of Oak and Parsons Avenue. Since I moved to the neighborhood, this location has housed several different eateries, most notably Elemental. I hope Black Creek Bistro has a long, long stay.
See the Restaurant Widow’s excellent review here.
We need more eating and drinking options in the neighborhood though. Lots of spots within the community are available so call me, we’ll buy you a building and you can get to work on that fast-casual Mexican place we need.
Also, don’t forget to frequent the Cara Bar. An excellent establishment for drinking and eating and listening to bands.

I was lucky enough to get an invite from Ajay to this French Cooking Class at the Manila Diamond Hotel. Despite the very short notice, I was really excited about getting out of the house, possibly meeting new people and attending a cooking class. (At this point, ANY class would have excited me; I miss school.)
I had a feeling that I would meet the other local bloggers, and I was right. First, there was Christine, whom I met over at BootsnAll, Rache, wife of Anton of Our Awesome Planet whom I met during the Pampanga Culinary Tour, and of course, Ajay, whom I met during the same tour. I was also able to meet Noemi of Aboutmyrecovery.com, but she didn’t stay; she just went there to drop off her daugther, Marielli, who unfortunately, I wasn’t able to talk to (more…
