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."

5 Best Restaurants in Toledo, Ohio You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them
Toledo, Ohio — a city where the Maumee River glides beneath bridges old and new, where glass and steel rise beside brick warehouses, and the laughter of families, artists, and dreamers mingles on tree-lined avenues. Here, the skyline is a patchwork: art deco towers, murals blooming on downtown walls, and the steady hum of industry softened by the warmth of neighborhood diners. Toledo is a crossroads — of Midwestern grit and quiet hope, of auto workers and musicians, of immigrants whose recipes and stories have become the city’s own.
