Date night in the Village

Downtown Grosse Pointe is called The Village.
It's a beautiful downtown area about 3 blocks long, both sides of the street.  I wrote about it a bit before here.
If you're from the Columbus, Ohio area it sorta reminds me of Easton.
Stores that are typically in a mall, but have outside entrances and lots of flowers, benches, and fountains!

We walked over from our apartment, it's about 4 blocks away from us.
It was a perfect summer evening.  We strolled around, had dinner, and considered getting ice cream at Cold Stone - but decided to go to Kroger and get a whole carton for the same price instead :)

We had dinner at the Village Grille.  I had actually been there before {when I finally met my blogging friend Marisa in real life! She blogs at Count On Me For Life about her life as a SO to an SGU medical student, now resident! }  It was pretty good, so we went back to try some of their other stuff.  I can now say that their hamburger, "lumber jack" aka french dip, and calzones are really good.
