Ten questions. All flavor. Only in Grand Rapids.
This week, Michael sits down with Faith from @faithsfoodblog, one of GR’s favorite local food accounts, to run through the official 616 Ten – ten rapid-fire questions about the best eats in and around the city.
Faith shares how a grainy iPod Touch and childhood food pics turned into a full-blown Grand Rapids food blog, growing up in Rockford, and why exploring local spots after college made her fall in love with this city’s food scene even more. Then she locks in her picks for:
Best burger in Grand Rapids (and why ambiance matters)
The Detroit-style pizza that converted her
Her go-to coffee shop for an iced latte (even in winter)
A fun, low-pressure first date spot
The tiki bar cocktail that’ll make you forget it’s snowing
Her favorite sweet treat pop-up worth taking PTO for
The tiny spot she’d hit for her “last meal” in GR
A Lake Michigan coast must-stop
The best tacos in the city
And the cozy “secret” Korean spot she almost didn’t want to share
If you’re always asking “Where should we eat in Grand Rapids?” this episode is your new cheat sheet.
