    Clean, cute store with lots of variety. a little on the expensive side, but they do have free samples, yah! they also sell gelato and sorbet! and have a few MIchigan-y things like pot holders & cutting boards. Reminds me of Williams Sonoma a little.

    This place is a haven for ice cream lovers. Their gelatos and sorbettos are amazing! Try their strawberry and mango gelato. I had their blood orange sorbetto (yes, that's right) and it is OUT of this world! If blood orange is not exotic enough, I don't know what is. It is a must try in Traverse City. p/s: A small cup is about $3 but it's a little tiny for that price.

    Known for their cherry preserves, but you really need to try the jalepeno jelly and roasted chile salsa. Yum!

For those of you who pick your restaurants based on pop, they serve Coke and Northwoods. The menu is expansive ranging from appetizers, boasted chicken, a salad bar, Mexican, burgers/sandwiches and pizza. I did not upload pics of the menu bc their entire menu is available on their website. The staff is friendly and attentive. We arrived and every table in the place was full but was still seated within 15 mins. The food came out quickly after ordering. We got the garlic cheese bread as an appetizer, and the Broasted Chicken and a Small Pepperoni Pan Pizza as entrees. Everything was delicious and incredibly reasonably priced for the portions. Ambience inside is a little dated and while the tables/floors are clean, the decor on the walls could use some attention. Otherwise, Rico's is a great local place and I'd recommend it if you're in the area.

We stumbled upon Rico's--one of the few places still open late--and decided to give it a try. We're so glad we did! The food was delicious. My husband and I really enjoyed our meals--everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and satisfying after hours on the road. Some of our family had mixed opinions, but overall, everyone found something they liked. What really stood out was the friendly and welcoming staff. Even though it was late, they were kind, patient, and made us feel right at home. If I'm ever back in Traverse City, I'd definitely order from Rico's again. Great option for late-night dining with good vibes and solid food!
