The new multi-business building being built downtown, at the corner of Main Street and Ann Arbor Trail, seems to be taking shape. I am not afraid to say that this looks like it is going to be an ugly building and doesn’t fit with the character of the city. But, it’s coming, like it or [...]

There is no shortage of coffee vendors in Plymouth. Between the City and the Township, there are two Starbucks, at least two independent coffee houses, a few chains that sell lots of coffee as a sideline (e.g. Panera), and another franchise coffee store. Of course, every gas station and restaurant sells coffee. You can get [...]

http://www.hometownlife.com/article/20110213/NEWS15/102130485/Green-fair-s-timing-causes-flap?odyssey=mod|newswell|text|Plymouth|s According to the Plymouth Observer, there’s a bit of a controversy over the timing of this year’s Green Street Fair: it falls on Mother’s Day weekend. Some businesses downtown are fearful that the massive crowds and the lack of parking space will keep away Mother’s Day diners and shoppers. The argument is that people [...]

Finally Plymouth’s beloved Burger Spot has re-opened. It was closed for months for “remodeling” but there was actually a change in ownership. The remodeling did occur and the place looks quite nice, but the temporary closure was more than about just aesthetics. A few of the things that made the Burger Spot great remain unchanged. [...]

Twice now I’ve had shish kabob at Red Olive (Ann Arbor Road between Main Street and Sheldon Road) and it is the best I’ve ever had, hands down. It’s extremely tender, juicy and full of flavor. It would be hard to make better stuff on your own barbecue. If you like kabob I can’t recommend [...]

Our family was able to attend the Chili Cookoff today. My in-laws came in for the afternoon from out of town, my daughter had a new friend to hang out with and we spent a pretty nice day — except for 10 minutes of rain — downtown. It was a really nice day and, as [...]
