The Best Dishes Eater Detroit Editors Ate in September, 2024 | Eater Detroit
"Equal parts farm, winery, and restaurant, the Suttons Bay tasting room opened in September 2023 and recently gained buzz after two Detroit chefs joined the team. A standout is a crispy chicken schnitzel inspired by a New York Prune-era preparation, topped with a towering, creamy Caesar created by one of the co-chefs (a self-described Caesar connoisseur). The chicken—sourced from a Traverse City purveyor—is soaked overnight in grass-fed, small‑herd buttermilk from Manistee County, breaded, fried, and finished with a shishito-based chile oil made from produce grown on the property; the Caesar is piled with parmesan, big cranks of black pepper, lemon, and crispy romaine from a local co-op. The emphasis on local ingredients and the busy patio suggest both visitors and locals are enthusiastic about the food." - Eater Staff
