Welcome Spring!

April 2022 PUBLISHER

Joe Geagea | joe.geagea@citylifestyle.com EDITOR IAL COOR DINATOR

Amy Niezur | amy.niezur@citylifestyle.com

Spring symbolizes new beginnings. Nature reveals its beauty through budding trees and flowers, and the fresh temperate air invites us to spend more time outdoors. As we prepare our gardens and flowerbeds, new life awakens joy in the beauty of our world and the desire to explore it. For those of us without a green thumb, the local farmer’s markets are gearing up for a busy season of visitors to enjoy fresh produce.

There are a multitude of diverse spots around town to discover, whether it is a unique restaurant to enjoy with friends and family, a hiking trail to take in nature and the surrounding scenery, or a niche boutique hotel for a relaxing staycation—there is something for everyone.

For our April issue, we wanted to share with you how some of our neighbors are getting out to explore both locally and globally. We hope that the destinations featured this month give you something to dream about visiting in the near future. Here's to a happy spring full of adventure, peace and sunshine.

Just two hours from West Bloomfield and full of fun things to see and do, Grand Rapids, Michigan is a perfect destination for a weekend getaway. Whether a couple’s trip or a mini-vacation with the family, there is plenty to explore.

If spring weather has you feeling like being outdoors, visit the John Ball Zoo (jbzoo.org).

The zoo features over 2000 animals, a 300foot zipline, a four-story ropes adventure course, funicular tram, and even camel rides!

While taking in the fresh air, try a stop at the Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park (meijergardens.org). Stroll through more than 150 acres of botanical gardens, including a Japanese garden and the Lena Meijer Children’s Garden. The sculpture park, set

amongst the gardens, features more than 200 sculptures, including works by Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore, and Marshall Fredericks, creator of The Spirit of Detroit.

If the sculpture gardens have you hungry for art, spend a leisurely afternoon at GRAM, the Grand Rapids Art Museum (artmuseumgr.org). Browse the galleries, which are refreshed regularly from the museum’s extensive collection, or take in a guided tour or workshop. For a museum experience that appeals to the entire family, try the Grand Rapids Public Museum (grpm. org). The museum, located downtown, features three stories of history presented in a fun, interactive manner. Take in a planetarium show, stroll the streets of 1890s Grand Rapids, and meet Finny, a 75-foot whale skeleton acquired in 1905.

OWNERS TIM AND NICOLE RYAN TRANSFORMED A 300-YEAR-OLD BARN INTO A UNIQUE DINING DESTINATION

Table

“Let’s be better” was Nicole Ryan’s mantra for opening a restaurant on a five-acre parcel in Sylvan Lake. She wanted to “take care of this piece of land and not add to the mess we have made to our planet.”

With this inspiration in mind, Nicole and her partner Tim Ryan set about transforming an aging 300-year-old barn into a working restaurant, and its grounds into a farm to supply Sylvan Table with locally-grown fresh produce.

With the help of Don Polaski, owner of Antique Barn Company, Nicole and Tim worked to save the old barn and repurpose it. The Ryan’s brought their own construction expertise to the table, as the pair’s other business, Ryan Construction, builds restaurants.

The location was perfect, says Nicole. “We have always loved Sylvan Lake. It is so charming. And then there is the factor that

there are not too many restaurants in this area. We always would head to Birmingham, Detroit, Royal Oak, etc. for dinner. We were excited to have a place right around the corner that was exactly what we wanted in a restaurant.”

As for the restaurant’s farm, Nicole has always been a gardener. Her interest in permaculture, or growing in a sustainable, self-sufficient manner, is reflected in the crops grown at Sylvan Table. “This coming season, we are basing our production on what our greatest produce uses were last spring, summer, and fall,” notes Nicole. “Of course, not everything can be grown here, but the plan is to grow all our herbs, greens, flowers, and many of our vegetables right here on the farm. In addition, we plan on planting some specialty produce that we will gear to event dinners. For example, we plan on celebrating garlic this year with a garlic festival.”

The menu is a collaboration between Nicole and Executive Chef Chris Galdulka. Nicole finds inspiration from her Italian American family. “Italians let ingredients speak for themselves, using produce at its peak. Chef Chris is French-trained, which is very different. We spend lots of time throwing around ideas and tweaking them. Our menu changes about every two weeks or so. What comes in from our farm and other partner farms dictate the path our menu takes.”

Whole grilled trout and chicken under a brick are guest favorites at Sylvan Table. “They have been on the menu since day one. Both are how I cook them at home, so I am a bit partial,” muses Nicole.

At Sylvan Table, guests can expect a friendly welcome and a relaxed, natural, and cozy atmosphere. Says Nicole, “We have three different dining areas, all very unique.” Fresh flowers and candles accent the tables, with flowers changing with the seasons. Signature cocktails, such as the Buzz Thyme, and desserts such as apple crisp with cardamom hazelnut streusel and fennel seed ice cream round out the menu.

For locals looking to enjoy a unique dining experience, Sylvan Table has a seat for you.

SPRINGREADY SKIN PUT YOUR BEST FACE FORWARD

Get your skin as ready for spring as you are! Months of cold air can wreak havoc on skin, so before you set off on your adventures, take a moment for you.

1. Exfoliate Dry Winter Skin After battling the dry air of winter, treat yourself to a gentle exfoliation. Tools such as ultrasonic spatulas or scrubbers can do the job or consider a chemical option such as glycolic acid. Be sure to follow with moisturizer.

2. Use Sunscreen Daily Following a season with minimal exposure to the sun, sunburns often happen in the spring when we start spending more time outdoors.

Choose a sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UVB rays with at least 30 SPF.

3. Consult a Dermatologist If you have concerns about getting your skin ready for spring, consider consulting with a dermatologist. Art of Dermatology (theartofderm.com), here in West Bloomfield, can help you get the answers you need.
