Jill prepared the food for our 50th Anniversary party in December. It was so much fun working with…read moreJill ahead of time setting up the menu with her advise. She knew the amounts and recommended some awesome dishes. Not only was her food delicious, it was presented beautifully or should I say deliciously. We asked for soup and salad to meet the needs of several family members. She will even take your favorite recipe and prepare it with her flourishes. Three soups included a vegetarian mushroom soup, chicken Chilli, and a beef stew that was astounding. Jill roasted the beef before adding it to this marvelous stew. I really do not know her secret, but guests could not get enough of it. The soups had wonderful homemade garnishes as well. The big green salad was a work of art and included two homemade dressings. If you can get on their busy schedule with your catering event, grab the date. You won't be disappointed.

Oryana Community Co-op is hands-down my favorite place to stop in Traverse City for a vegan meal,…read morewhether it's breakfast, lunch, or just a coffee. Oryana is truly a vegan haven. Not only do they have an amazing selection of grab-and-go items, but their made-to-order options are equally impressive. Their vegan dill wrap is one of my favorites and packed with flavor. I also love their prepared tofu slices, especially the curry and smoked varieties. Most recently, I tried the peanut tofu wrap and it was absolutely out of this world, incredibly flavorful, satisfying, and very filling. They also have fantastic options on the hot bar. One standout for me is the vegan breakfast burrito. It's only around $4, surprisingly filling, and loaded with flavor. A little messy to eat, but completely worth it! If you're vegan and visiting Traverse City, Oryana is an absolute must-visit.

Before I even ambarked on my vacation to Traverse City with my wife I would have never thought that…read morethis city had a health food store but this store takes the cake! This store is absolutely incredible. It's a medium-sized store but it has so much to offer and I enjoyed it it doesn't feel like on the side a big box grocery store. This store is unique and many ways and the prices on all your grocery items are actually very fair. You can expect to find hard to find vegan items, a great selection of Health Products your bathroom or just everyday life. The cafe and the little dining room in the back is such a great touch to the store. The soup selection is awesome incredible awesome featuring some vegan items. Great selection of alcoholic beverages as well! I also visited it's sister store only a couple of miles away and it's just as good but I feel like this location has a slight Edge over it. Highly recommend checking out this store if you're in the area or are vacationing like myself.

I love Silver Swan! they offer some middle eastern goodies like dolmas, hummus and baba ghanoush,…read morewhich you can get separated nicely with pita bread to go, or have altogether in a wrap. I've had both, depends on my mood. They also have some German food, which is rare to find up in this area, as well as lebkuchen cookies around the Christmas holidays. I am not a big fan of ham, but they have a pineapple and ham sandwich, grilled, that is to die for. The dessert case has homemade lemon bars, cream puffs, rice pudding and other homemade yummies. The decor is unique, with small gifts, cards and European treats for sale as well. My husband had them cater my 40th birthday party a few years ago and the food was excellent then as well.

This is an often overlooked place, set on the side of M22 a little past Tom's grocery store. It's…read moremostly a lunch place, but they do catering as well. They have the best reuben in town (also the messiest). A great vegetarian menu and also a daily special of more homemade-type meals like meatloaf or stroganoff. The tomato bisque soup is really good as well. Everything is made from scratch. Oh, and usually I'm too full, but the desserts are rockin- like a giant cream puff the size of a softball. I used to come here all the time for work and I loved it. It's not set in the best location and I think it shares its parking lot with a carpet store or something. But the food is worth it and its cute inside, with some really cool artwork (weird joker clowns). I always forget about this place in town since it doesn't feel like a destination, but when you think about going to Scott's for the view, you should think twice and head to the Silver Swan for the food.
