Tonight we found a little gem hidden away in the small town of Prescott Michigan called Cafe International. I was a bit skeptical when I entered but after sitting down and looking around I said this is an interesting restaurant which was formally a hometown bar. Now it's not extremely fancy but it's got that "Up North" feeling that we all desire when we travel in Michigan. Being an international restaurant they have the flags of all types of nations there they have currency mounted and displayed on the walls and all other types of souvenir memorabilia from different countries. Now the food is what I looked at. We were there to celebrate a birthday and we were not disappointed. The menu is full of different foods from different countries. I first ordered an appetizer "Basket of Bones" which was ribs tips. For my main course I had Jager schnitzel which originated in Austria but is served everywhere in Germany. Of course the meal came with mashed potatoes, vegetable, a small roll and the salad bar. One friend had the pork chop special which was two good size pork chops with mashed potato and veggie and the buffet salad bar. My other friend had the standard hamburger with fries. I'm telling you folks we were impressed with all of the food and the promptness of delivery of the food plus the food came out at the desired temperature. We decided to have some dessert, my friends had the brownie delight and pumpkin pie and I had apple pie. My friend expressed that she really did enjoy the brownie delight and the pumpkin pie. I was overjoyed with the hot apple pie. Very well satisfied with the food and atmosphere of this restaurant. Definitely coming back here to eat and try many of the other foods they have on the menu. I think I found a little gold mine here and I'm not afraid to share it with all of you. Especially we noticed that the prices were extremely reasonable. I didn't see...

Read moreMet some friends here for dinner a coulpe weeks ago. When we walked in I thought the atmosphere was a little dark for a 'cafe'. It felt more like a bar at first so I was a little leary. The owner waited on us and my concerns were gone in no time. He was friendly and welcoming and did a great job making sure we had what we needed. Drinks came quickly as well as the appetizer I ordered. Our meals came and the food was absolutely delicious. Portions were way more than I was going to eat and the price was very reasonable. I almost never give 5 stars so 4 means I was quite impressed. After it became apparent we would never eat all the food in front of us (a good thing right?) our server set us up with boxes and I ate bbq for breakfast and lunch the next day. So good! We are local and will be...
