New Scenic Cafe

$$$

Across the street from Lake Superior, this café embraces the farm-to-table concept, organic wherever possible, including sourcing from herb and vegetable gardens on the property. Locals have been flocking to this cozy place, where work by local artists graces the wide-plank wooden walls, since its opening in the late 1990s. Starters like duck-confit spanikopita or curried blue mussels are perfect to share. Exotic artisanal accents drive the entrées, such as pork tenderloin served with port-fortified cherries, chorizo, and corn-bread stuffing. Down-home desserts include a grasshopper terrine.
