Mr.B's Rustic Tavern

Mr. B's is located on the main four corners of downtown Howell( Grand River and Michigan ave)

You might think from first glance that Mr B's is just another bar,well think again.This little known place is actually a full service resteraunt,not just a bar.

Go ahead,step inside,the food is good,the pizza is awsome and the waitstaff is friendly and laid back.They are open for lunch and dinner,with a casual atmosphere that makes you want to slow down a bit and actually enjoy your meal.

The prices are right in line with other resteraunts in the area.I have not seen any coupon deals or specials from them yet,but maybe if enough people ask they will start putting some out there.



Too bad they don't deliver the pizza....that would be even better.

Mary's Chicken

OK,first let me send out an apology for not posting in so long.We've been battling illness in the household and I am just now finally feelling normal again.

Mary's Chicken is in Howell,on Grand River near Golf Club road.It's a little tiny place that's not really set up for sit in dining,more of a carry out place,with only 2 or 3 parking spots,I usually park at the Whistle Stop plaza and walk over,it's easier to get in and out of if you need to make a left turn back onto Grand River.

If you grew up craving fried chicken like your grandma made,this is the place for you.The chicken is all made to order,so it's not like walking in to KFC and the chicken is sitting under heat lamps.The breading is a simple old fashioned flour coating.Yummy!

If you like smelt,and can't find a place that has it year round,again this is the place to go.I like the smelt dinner,they give you more than a generous portion,so you don't feel like you're getting short changed on food.

I know,I know,deep fried is bad for you,but once in a while,in moderation can't be all that bad can it?

The prices are pretty much in line with other fast food places,and lunch or dinner will cost you just under $10.00.I haven't seen any coupons or discount deals from Mary's Chicken,so if you find one,please post a comment here so I can share the deal with readers.

Thank You!!

I just wanted to post a quick thank you to my friend Courtney for gifting me some great new business cards to promote my blog.

What can I say about this tiny little place? I really do mean tiny!

I'm not all that adventurous sometimes,but tonight decided to try the YakiSoba,with chicken...its's good,yep,and the dinner size serving is more than enough to share.I wasn't sure what to expect,but going by a reccomendation from my bank teller,I figured I'd give it a try.

YakiSoba is basically buckwheat noodles and an assortment of veggies stir fried with a cubed chicken breast tosssed in,but it's a very satisfying meal.It's not spicy,so if you like spice you may have to add some at the table,or ask the cook to add spice.

I normally go for the tempura rolls,which totally rock by the way.

I did not have a coupon for them tonight,so suffered through paying full price,the total I belive came to around $14.00,which is kind of pricey,but for the amount you get,and the fact that it's more than enough to share,it might not be that bad of a price.

Check them out if you're in downtown Brighton,they are located in the plaza with CVS,at the corner of Main and Grand River.
