Sweet Water Cafe reviewed by Roadfood's Michael Stern

Marquette's Sweet Water Café made it into the good graces of food writer Michael Stern, at least according to a recent review from the food writer and James Beard Award winner.

Excerpt: Many great Roadfood restaurants are blue-collar diners, dives, and truck stops. We tend not to gravitate to eateries with vegetarian proclivities, where the menu boasts of the "integrity" of natural ingredients, fair-trade coffees, and gluten-free options. Not that there's anything wrong with all that stuff, but usually the food is pretty blah and without much regional character.

But we shall not hold Sweet Water Cafe's elevated consciousness against it. We would inscribe this cheerful place in our little black book if only for its wonderful homemade breads and for the locally-made maple spread offered at breakfast.
