mean more than just sitting
out in the sun, swimming or
going boating, at least to Bill
Kruse and his chefs.
It also presents a time that Bill,
general manager and partner
Vince Clark, along with the stal-
warts of Rochester Chop House,
Main Street in Rochester, can cre-
ate a menu showcasing the fresh
tastes of a Michigan summer.
I don't know about today, but
12 years ago, Michigan ranked
first in the nation in the produc-
tion of nine crops ... and was fifth
or higher in the producing of 20
others ... It is unlikely that the
rankings have changed ... Espe-
cially in the production of blue-
berries, of which Michigan easily
ranks first ... and plums, which
puts Michigan third.
The annual Summertime In
Michigan by Rochester Chop
House (plus Kruse And Muer On
Main, Kruse And Muer Quality
Meats and Kruse And Muer
Grand Blanc), features all Michi-
gan products ... and continues all
the way through Sept. 14.
It was originally to be just a one-
time shot, but so many folks asked
when Bill was going to have Sum-
mertime In Michigan again that
