If you don't have cash, you can just sit at the table and order with the QR code and they bring it to you. We tried so cheesy and the shawarma truck. Everything was good. I think we like the shawarma the best. We also tried Nami for their Japanese crispy sandos. The sandos did not use the traditional bread that is supposed to be used so the taste was not what I'm used to. The filling was also different. It was more of a cream cheese instead of a cream taste. Also, different than what I'm used to. Still a really good dessert. I will definitely come back and try much other things.

That's the only potential "drawback" really, like if there's too many people you simply might struggle to find a seat. It can and does get completely full. At least you can still take your food to go! I love the set up of having food and drinks inside AND food trucks outside. What a treat. There's coffee, boba, ice cream, sushi, tacos, burgers, chicken and waffles?! And there's some little shops, at least one, which had jewelry when I went. Overall, if you are meeting with someone to chat, come here. If you're hungry, I assure you'll find something. It's good for a casual date or catch up with friends and family. High energy but not chaotic.

I've never been a big mall fan but now that they're rapidly dying out it's kind of a nice novelty…read moreto see one with a high occupancy rate. Yeah, they're down an anchor store and that's vacant storefronts here and there but by 2022 standards Fairlane is bustling. There was a decent crowd around noon on Monday in January. I made a couple trips here recently, buying a new belt at JC Penney after my cheap Meijer bought belt broke and paying my phone bill at the T Mobile cause, well, I was just in the neighborhood. The layout is a bit confusing and the three levels kind of go back and forth between odd sub-levels but it does lend the place something of an epic, labyrinthine feel. And like any mall it's some huffing and puffing to get around but I much prefer this type of layout to the giant endless oval of Great Lakes Crossing. If I wanted to navigate a humongous paper clip I'd drive NASCAR. Fairlane has that classic Taubman feel, sharing many similarities to Lakeside, albeit with more actual business. The occasional sculpture, the glass elevator with track lighting, both shut down presumably to save money, the sunken lounge areas with large leather sectional sofas. Fairlane lost their fountain though, while I think Lakeside still has theirs? I don't know. That's for another review. The food court still has a few options but with so much good ethnic restaurants none was tempting enough for me to fork over some ducats and park my butt at a table. The giant chess set by the food court is a fun free novelty. If I'd been there with another chess player I'd definitely want to try it. On my JC Penney outing I made some small talk with a couple playing chess. It was her first time playing; she was learning on that board! And one of the queens was missing so they just had both sides play without a queen. Fortunately on my more recent visit the missing queen had re-emerged though the board sat unused. The AMC theater, done up to look like the Chinese Theater here, unfortunately closed recently. I've had issues with overly yappy moviegoers talking over the film there in the past but that's still a bummer. They did have an IMAX and I loved the architecture of the place. Word is the owners are looking for another chain to reopen the cineplex though I'm sure there would be a remodel first so it'll definitely sit unused for awhile. The giant vacant hotel at the edge of the lot looms like a white elephant, too. I think "Town Center" can be anything on the complex and not just the actual mall, right? So it would be nice if a new tenant(s) took that over. That mid century glassy modernist style of the past somehow looks extra depressing sitting there vacant. Did you know back in the day a monorail ran between there and the mall? There's malls I thought about reviewing on here but never did and they're gone or will be gone shortly. I do believe Fairlane is safe for the foreseeable future though. Put this in a time capsule to see if I'm right but I think it will actually still exist as a shopping center in 20 years. If it outlasts Great Lakes Crossing I'll be especially happy.

Being allergic to dairy, it's really rare to find a place that I can enjoy any sort of sweet snack from. Auntie Anne's makes it possible if I simply order a pretzel without the butter. Cuts the fat amount by a lot too! So typically I'll order Cinnamon Pretzel Bites- without butter. Takes like 6-8 minutes, but for some reason this specific location ALWAYS finds a way to deny me my pretzels. Couples times of "sorry we have a lot made already", "sorry we can't do that", and also, "sorry nothing would stick without butter." Having ordered that numerous times at other locations, I know it's definitely doable and delicious. With their Sweet Pretzel dip it's to die for! Especially because it's dairy free too! There was this one time that they agreed to make me a sweet almond one without butter... and it was horrible. It was absolutely horrible. They must have forgotten it in the oven or something. It was basically burnt. Even that pretzel dip couldn't save it. I also had requested them to be bites, but they gave me a whole pretzel, no biggie if it wasn't burnt! The lemonade felt extremely watered down too. I will avoid this location at all costs. Southland Auntie Anne's is my go to.
