Robert Daniels+FollowMichigan snacks locals still craveNothing brings back Michigan memories like biting into a Detroit Coney Dog at 1 AM or fighting over the last Better Made chip from Grandpa’s grocery bag. From Vernors ginger ale (the cure-all pop) to Mackinac Island fudge, these snacks are more than food—they’re pure Michigan nostalgia. Pączki Day lines in Hamtramck, cherry pie from Traverse City, and the spicy mystery of a U.P. cudighi sandwich all remind us how unique our local flavors are. Which classic Michigan snack do you still dream about? Share your favorites and the stories behind them! #Food #MichiganEats #LocalFlavors00Share
Mary Williams+FollowBasalt’s menu gets a local twist and big savingsBasalt in Waikīkī just got a major upgrade—Chef Lance Kosaka has taken over and packed the menu with bold local flavors and massive portions. Think guava-glazed ribs inspired by his mom, unique warabi salad, and a Vietnamese bruschetta that outshines any banh mi. The best part? There’s a 20% kama‘āina discount until the end of August, making it the perfect time to try these new dishes with friends or family. Free parking is a bonus, too. Who’s already tried the revamped menu, and what’s your must-order? #Food #WaikikiEats #LocalFlavors00Share
