Midnite's menu rotates weekly, and in order to get your hands on them, you have to plan ahead via preordering. Check the instagram page or website on Wednesdays, take your pick (there is an option to order a sampler box at a discounted rate), and pick them up from the "secret kitchen" on Saturdays from 10 AM-1 PM.

Baby's Gourmandise is located inside Grand Rapids Downtown Market, and it has some of the prettiest desserts in the whole joint. There were lots of pastries, but it looks like maybe cream puffs are the stars here. There were a few different flavors of cream puffs, including chocolate and even matcha. I'm not the biggest fan of choux pastries, though, so I didn't pick a cream puff. Instead, I got a pistachio creme brûlée! I love that first tap to break the hard, sugary crust. Underneath is smooth and creamy pistachio custard, just the slightest shade of light green. It was decadent but not too much!

They have a nice large parking lot so there is typically no trouble parking and people are coming and going quite quickly. Pricing is very fair for the quality you get.

Honestly, I am not a huge sandwich person, but if I heard a sandwich shop is good, I'll try it.

It was so flavorful and soft. And the veggies like avocado, tomatoes, and lettuce tasted so fresh. I got it with sourdough bread, which was really good. It was a bit tough to put the whole sandwich in your mouth because of the crusty crusts (lol), so I just resorted to eating it with a fork and a knife (very proper). The food came out rather quickly, and the service was very sweet, friendly and down to earth. Ambience was great! Casual and friendly. There is street parking - usually, it's not too difficult to find parking around this area. But maybe I just get lucky, I don't know.

Title: A Delightful Breakfast Experience at Lucy's We Love Lucy's! I can't recommend Lucy's Love Lucy's enough! This charming spot has quickly become one of my favorite places to eat. The menu is packed with delicious options, and honestly, you can't go wrong with anything you order! One of our absolute favorites is the Bacon Roll--it's a must-try! We usually get one for the table and split it. The combination of crispy bacon and sticky sweet bread is simply irresistible. The Breakfast Pot Pie is another standout; it's hearty, comfort food and the perfect way to start the day. The combination of eggs, meat and hash browns topped with a creamy béchamel sauce and a homemade biscuit is just perfect. We also indulged in the Poutine, which was loaded with rich gravy and cheese curds. It's the perfect indulgence and a great shareable dish. And how can I forget the Classic Breakfast? It's done right here, with all the traditional favorites cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring that every visit is a pleasant experience. Overall, Lucy's Love Lucy's is a fantastic spot for breakfast or brunch, and I can't wait to go back and try more from their menu! If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and check it out--you won't be disappointed! read more

I came here for brunch with some friends and had a fantastic experience! We put our names on the waitlist about 15 minutes before we arrived, around 9:30ish on a Saturday, and it worked out perfectly. We were seated right away! They had a good menu with a wide selection of both savory and sweet items. For drinks, they had an abundance of coffee and cocktail options. I ordered a pumpkin spice latte, and it was delicious. For food, I went with a monte cristo sandwich and it did not disappoint. I couldn't help but notice the bakery section up front. The pastries, cinnamon rolls, and cookies looked incredible. I wish I could remember our server's name because she was absolutely incredible. Throughout the meal, my friends and I couldn't stop commenting on how friendly she was. Not only that, but she was also incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. One of my friends has a dairy allergy, and our server was able to answer all of her questions and make her feel confident about her choices. It's such a relief when the staff knows their stuff! Overall, this place was top-notch. The food was beyond delicious, the service was outstanding, and the ambiance was just right. I don't find myself in the Grand Rapids area often, but I would definitely go out of my way to come back here again. read more

The $18.99 "steak" sandwich tasted like dry microwaved Steakums. The waiter brought me a diet soda even though I asked for regular, which wouldn't seem that big of a deal to a thin person, but being overweight it is a slap in the face. No, it was not just a simple mistake, it happens far too often and I was the only person that got the wrong drink at the table. Do people assume if you are fat you drink diet or are they making health choices for you? Pro tip for the waiter: If someone asks for a "coke" biring them what they ask for and don't ad lib based on stereotypical criteria. read more
