Hey, here’s some good news instead of the usual “guess what closed today.” I’ve noticed a couple new restaurants in the area recently.
First, we noticed a taco stand in the abandoned coffee place between Holt and Mason sort of near the skating rink. I didn’t catch a name and it was closed by the time we were heading back to Lansing. I can’t even tell you what used to be in the building to try and help pin down the location because whatever it was had been closed since we’ve been in the area. One night when I’m on my own for dinner I’ll probably run down there and give it a try.
The other is Brother’s Grill in East Lansing. I saw a story on WLAJ last week about the Michigan Business Tax and they talked to this place which I had never heard of. I did a quick Google search and found a website at http://www.brothersgrillmsu.com. It looks to be in the old Big Ten Burrito location on Grand River Avenue. It also looks like the kind of place J and I would enjoy, so I would expect a reveiw from there fairly soon.
Anyone else seen new places opening up in Mid-Michigan recently?

Olympic Broil-1320 North Grand River Avenue, Lansing, MI 48906-Best chicken strips in Lansing -closed Sundays
These are close enough to downtown for lunch.
Have to agree with Rachel…Golden Harvest is a great breakfast, if you don’t mind waiting for a table to open up…
And Olympic Broil DOES have great chicken strips!!!
The taco stand in Holt is Taco e’ Mas…I was there Monday for lunch and had cheese enchiladas and nachos…Not bad…
I knew you’d know it. 🙂
