These 10 Michigan Restaurants Have Interiors So Wild They Might Steal The Whole Show

A chandelier made of spoons hangs over one of the dining rooms on this list. I read that detail once and immediately needed to see the rest of the room. It gets stranger from there. One dining room has hundreds of mounted animal heads watching your plate. Another lets you roll a cheese-shaped wooden ball toward a pigeon feather between bites. That game has been part of the room since the 1930s.

Secret Chicago

This Dutch-inspired town near Chicago has a charming outdoor Christmas market—and it’s returning this month

You don’t need a passport—or a pricey transatlantic flight— for a little European Christmas magic this holiday season. Just a few hours from Chicago, Holland, Michigan, pairs Dutch charm with a festive outdoor Christmas market , making it a dreamy winter road-trip destination. While this charming town is best known for its spring tulips, its downtown shops, galleries, eateries, and brewpubs offer plenty of reasons to explore beyond tulip season. Come the holidays, though, Kerstmarkt steals the spotlight. The European-style outdoor market brings gifts, seasonal bites, and artisan demonstrations to town—and it’s the perfect excuse to trade the city for a festive weekend away. A little Dutch Christmas magic in Michigan So, why Kerstmarkt ? The word translates to “Christmas market” in Dutch. Its founders drew inspiration from Christmas markets across Europe, including those they visited in Germany, and brought a little of that festive charm back to Michigan. What began with just 10 booths in Centennial Park in 1997 now takes place outside the Holland Civic Center at 150 W. 8th Street, near the corner of 8th Street and Pine Avenue. Wander among the European-inspired wooden booths, and you’ll find handcrafted treasures, seasonal food and drinks, and artisans showing

Holland steakhouse cited for discoloration, debris in beer taps

Each week, the Ottawa County Department of Public Health releases a round-up of recent safety inspections at restaurants, schools and other facilities. Adhering to proper safety practices is critical to preventing foodborne illness and promoting public health. The Sentinel publishes regular reports on “priority” violations — ones that could directly lead to contamination of food or increase the risk of transmitting a foodborne illness, as well as corrective measures taken. The Sentinel also reports on “priority foundation” violations — ones that could lead to a priority violation. The health department notes “core” violations, but The Sentinel only reports on those if there’s a significant accumulation at a single eatery or the inspection noted more serious violations. All reports are available at miottawa.org/health/environmental/food-services .

There's a new restaurant coming to the former Crust 54 on Washington

A new restaurant with Nepali, South Asian and Indian flavors is coming to the former southside Crust 54 in Holland. Silk Road Curry and Crust will be operated by Prem Gurung and his brothers, Him and Purna, at 1145 Washington Ave. The siblings hope to open the first week of December. The menu will fuse all three cuisines, using fresh ingredients alongside spices and flavors from Gurung’s home country of Nepal. That includes pizza made with curry sauces, momo dumplings and other conventional curry dishes. Gurung lived in Nepal until 1993, when he relocated to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He previously worked as a Sherpa, helping travelers scale mountains, including Mount Everest. After moving, he worked on a cattle ranch in Jackson Hole. More: What's the deal with Crust 54 on Washington Avenue in Holland? Gurung said he and his brothers have spent multiple years looking for a restaurant space in Holland. His brothers bring unique culinary experience to the table, including the opening of Cumin Fresh Indian Kitchen in Grand Haven, which a cousin took over in 2024. Gurung said the brothers signed a lease for the former Crust 54 in September. He's been renovating the space ever since. For
