As a novice of woodworking, I was blown-away by the intricate woodwork and finishings throughout the home. The three ladies that lead our tour of the home shared many interesting details about the property, its restoration, and details of Clara and Henry's years at the estate. Many of the restoration stories, like finding a tub for Henry's bathroom or how Clara had a section repainted white were intriguing. Even though much of the home, especially the second floor, is still being restored it was a fascinating experience.

There wasn't much actually open amongst the majestic-looking buildings while I was there, but the picnic area was hopping. The signage was bilingual-in English and Arabic-and what appeared to be a Yemeni wedding seemed to be taking place. The juxtaposition of the estate of an industrialist (or robber baron, or visionary, or racist, depending on your point of view) with a distinctive immigrant community makes for a striking reflection on Americana. The grounds include some gardens, and a lake with a path around it. Access to the river is limited, but it didn't look like that impressive of a river. The greenery is more worthwhile.

However, the tastings are in small groups of about 8 people at a time so you can hear the wine descriptions and interact with the group easily. I ran into a college classmate that I haven't seen in 8 years because we were both running our mouths about how we liked the wine we were tasting. I wasn't a fan of the wines we tasted but I loved the Chardonnay I purchased as we sat around and talked. Conner was a great server and gave excellent recommendations. There are plenty of seating options, including a few couches upstairs. I will be back just to enjoy the atmosphere and have a glass or 2 of the Chardonnay.

Someone who's been to several events there recently said the experience was pretty disappointing. The event seemed short-staffed, so things didn't run smoothly for guests. The food was also an issue--some of it was undercooked, and they even ran out before everyone was served. What stood out most was that management never really came out to check on things or address any of the problems. Overall, it didn't live up to what people used to expect from Park Place, and it's probably not a top choice right now.

So helpful and personable. The food was delicious. It was a buffet with very fresh salad, delicious ranch, warm rolls. The lunch selections were park place chicken, kielbasa & kraut, red potatoes, and green beans. Seriously the chicken was incredible. My aunt selected a white cake with strawberries as the dessert, it was excellent. It was made in-house, cut and served beautifully, plated on two dessert tables. So I was able to really look at each piece to find the one with the most frosting :) The hall is unassuming from the road (Outer Drive), but once inside you find a real gem, it's so clean, professional, and really nice.

The Henry Ford Museum was an absolutely…read moreexcellent place for various reasons: We went to the rogue factory on the first hour of our tour, where our guide discussed an amazing history of Henry Ford, the inventor of Ford vehicles himself. Later on, we went across the gangway and into a gigantic assembly line job site. There were workers who were building most popular trucks called F150s. They were really cool, but one of my dad's favorites of all time was the 1964 Mustang. Once the factory tour was over, we went into the museum, where a lot of exhibits showed us some old fashioned convertibles, horse-drawn carriages, 1890s style steam trains, and of course, a brief history of American Industry, including the Declaration of Independence. This place is definitely a must-visit. Very cool histories to be shown.

We decided to check out the DaVinci special exhibition, shop the Museum Store and have lunch at the Plum Market Kitchen, too. The DaVinci exhibit was amazing. I had no idea of how many inventions Leonardo DaVinci made. I was only familiar with the Mona Lisa painting and the Safety Bridge. The Room of Mirrors was pretty cool.

I think we like the shawarma the best. We also tried Nami for their Japanese crispy sandos. The sandos did not use the traditional bread that is supposed to be used so the taste was not what I'm used to. The filling was also different. It was more of a cream cheese instead of a cream taste. Also, different than what I'm used to. Still a really good dessert. I will definitely come back and try much other things.

There's coffee, boba, ice cream, sushi, tacos, burgers, chicken and waffles?! And there's some little shops, at least one, which had jewelry when I went. Overall, if you are meeting with someone to chat, come here. If you're hungry, I assure you'll find something. It's good for a casual date or catch up with friends and family.
