GRAND TRAVERSE HIGHLANDERS

TRAVERSE CITY, MI

Trattoria Stella with Joan As usual, we ate what we considered my Official Birthday Supper (a week late) at Trattoria Stella at Grand Traverse Commons, what once was the Traverse City State Hospital. The food's locally sourced and the menu changes constantly. Eating there's an interesting experience in all sorts of ways, and the meal is usually excellent. The Minervini Group has been restoring and repurposing the state hospital's buildings for a couple decades, now. Since we visit the town regularly, we've been watching that project while exploring the former asylum's grounds. We used to eat at Stella actually on my birthday, but Traverse City Restaurant Week has made that unrealistic. Now we show up a few days later and avoid the crowds.

WTCM Of course we wandered around downtown Traverse City a bit last week.
