Spain and Ole / España y Ole

Today we went to Grand Rapids, where we were told there was a very nice Spanish Tapas restaurant.

San Chez Bistro www.sanchezbistro.com is a nice restaurant that has Spanish food with a Mediterranean/ Morocco influence. We had a great time. You can see some pictures of our delicious food.

Grand Rapids is an interesting mix of beautiful old houses (huge and very impressive with lots of architectural little details)... and modern buildings. The city is becoming a major medical center in the State. You can also admire some nice sunsets that I took while Steve was driving home.

I remember Grand Rapids as having a lot of very modern restaurants... years ago I went to a vegetarian place there that was amazing.

When I lived in Chicago I went to this restaurant, we should go there someday:

Today we went to Mitsua... Sasha had ramen and I had some tuna sushi. Next time you visit we need to go there as well!
