Frankenmuth, Michigan. The Cheese Haus, Stollen, Fruitcake...it's Christmas any time of year. And I like my Christmas without snow, so I took a trip there last weekend. Ok, I'll admit it, I'm not really that cultured; I actually went shopping at Birch Run. But Frankenmuth is about 7 minutes away, and why on Earth would you settle for the mall's food-court when you can eat at Zehnder's?
Eating fried foods makes me feel a little self-destructive, but Papa Moon always says, " If you can't be good, be good at it." Zehnder's family-style chicken dinner is like having a picnic that comes with servants! Fried Chicken and all the fixin's. There is cranberry relish (my favorite), cottage cheese, coleslaw, mashed potatoes and gravy, Stollen and liver pate (if you're into that sort of thing.) So, next time you find yourself heading toward Birch Run, don't forget to wear your dirndl or your lederhosen and perhaps bring a piano dollie, you may need it to get back to the car!
