This Michigan Deli Makes Jumbo Corned Beef Egg Rolls And Sandwiches Worth The Detour

One jumbo egg roll here weighs a full pound. It’s stuffed with corned beef and Swiss cheese, then fried until crispy. That’s not a typo or a dare. The egg rolls also come in regular and footlong sizes, so the jumbo is the final boss of the menu.

5 College Towns Worth the Trip on a Campus Tour Road Trip

Campus tours have a reputation for being a box to tick: a parking lot, an info session, a guide walking backward across the quad. Planned well, though, they can be one of the best road trips you’ll take as a family. College towns pack great food, walkable downtowns and easy access to the outdoors into a small area. Touring them is also a rare chance to spend a few days with your teen before life gets busy.

Cat House Lounge will reopen under new management in Howell

The Cat House Lounge is getting another chance in downtown Howell, after closing at the end of Melon Fest in August. The business will reopen under the same ownership, but new management, at 4 p.m. Nov. 18. According to a release, the cocktail bar will have an updated drink menu and small plate offerings, in addition to staff members with "deep roots" in Livingston County. In September, owner Clark Gill said the business was closing because sales "never really saw the volume" necessary to be sustainable. Gill also owns the nearby Aberrant Ales at 219 W. Grand River Ave. “We closed in the late summer to refocus the concept,” Gill wrote in the release. “While we saw success in some areas, we saw several areas of improvement that needed to change in order to deliver the quality product and service we strive for." Julia Blair will serve as the businesses' bartender and mixologist. She'll be joined by a team of bartenders who specialize in craft cocktail curation and have local connections. “I was a fan of The Cathouse Lounge," Blair wrote in the release. "After (it closed), I saw an opportunity. I had a vision for the space and the

5 Best Restaurants in Ann Arbor, Michigan You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

Ann Arbor, Michigan — a city where the red-brick streets pulse with the footsteps of students and professors, where the Huron River winds through neighborhoods stitched with memory and hope, where murals bloom on alley walls and the scent of coffee, curry, and barbecue drifts through the air. Here, the architecture is a patchwork: Victorian homes with wraparound porches, glassy new towers, and the gentle sprawl of parks and gardens. Ann Arbor is a crossroads — of old-timers and new arrivals, of artists, engineers, and dreamers, of families who picnic on the Diag and musicians who busk beneath the sycamores.
