The workers were very nice and informative. We found a nice table to sit at to eat our icecream. It was starting t get a little packed by the time we were done. It wasnt a bad thing though.

With an absolute stunning and beautifully decorated interior and exterior patio, this place is somewhere I will be stopping by every time I come into town, regardless of weather! This time around I got a selection of their lemon gelato and Michigan blueberry flavors and they were scrumptious! Others that my friends had tried that I snuck a little taste of from them that I was very impressed with were the stracciatella (chocolate/hazelnut taste) and the zabaglione (wine taste, but very light and more sweet than wine) flavors! And with their unique selection of gelato flavors that rotate as well through the seasons, there will always be something new for me to get here as well, which I love! YUM!

While searching for a baker for our wedding, I got a chance to try and meet a few bakers from the…read morebridal show in Charlevoix. Because there were so many, I ended up getting a couple of the bakers confused. But regardless, I made an appointment for my fiancé (ATT) and I to head up north for a couple tasting appointments. Again, to my surprise, this location was at the baker's home, which was gorgeous! It sat behind a lake and we entered through the back door that led straight into the kitchen. You could definitely tell that this baker knew what she was doing because everything was laid out beautifully and organized. We had one of the last appointments and thought we would be sitting one-on-one with the baker, but noticed it was more like a tasting buffet, where we got to mix and match different flavor cakes and frostings, which was nice because we could talk about each one in private. There was a couple girls assisting the couples and available for any questions we had and even had several binders full of past wedding/celebration cakes. My personal favorite was the vanilla bean cake but had a hard time choosing a frosting. Personally, the frosting was a bit too sweet for me. We ended up not going with BED for our wedding, but definitely thought the price was similar to the bakers around northern Michigan. I believe there was an minimum of $250 that we had to spend, especially because it was going to be delivered to Castle Farms in Charlevoix, which isn't bad. But we ended up going with a baker in SE Michigan for $150 for the same amount of cake/cupcakes for 50-60 people.

It sits right on the water, making it the perfect spot for a nice meal with a gorgeous view. I'll be honest--the food used to be pretty mediocre in my opinion, but I'm not sure what changed because they have seriously stepped up their game! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We had the shrimp bao buns, burrata, lobster pappardelle, and the flank steak with grits, and every single dish was a 10/10. The flavors are unique, interesting, and so well done. The portions are also surprisingly generous. It's definitely on the pricier side, but you're getting high-quality food AND a substantial amount of it, so it feels well worth it. The restaurant is beautiful and clean, and the service is always excellent. If you're in the Bay Harbor area, I'd definitely recommend giving Nomad a try--you won't be disappointed!

If you've not been to Bay Harbor, this spot makes it worthwhile. Not every seat is great in the place, but the booths and the bar are very well designed. The view provided outside was an art festival assembling on the lawn of this intimate and opulent harbor. The scene had my mind somewhere between a pharmaceutical ad and Marilyn Manson's, "The Beautiful People." Our server / bartender was super welcoming. We enjoyed a Spritz & a mocktail Mojito. Both well made. We split a large chop chop salad. (Enough for 4 for a light sample but plenty for 2) She had the heirloom risotto and I opted for the spicy sausage rigatoni. We loved the food! A nice spot no doubt. When the opportunity presents itself again, we look forward.
