Congrats!
Here is an unsolicited
Ann Arbor (Mostly Foodie) Bucket List on a budget:
-Watch a football game at The Big House...108k+ crazy fans never felt so cozy!
-Catch a game or two at Yost...Ice Box is ideal, but it's also an experience.
-Beezy's (in Ypsilanti) for the best french toast you'll ever eat. Great sandwiches too. "The Broken Egg" on the west side of Ann Arbor gets an honorable mention for their eggs, but on game days it is PACKED.
-Spend some time at Ashley's...one of the best beer selections anywhere. Good app specials. The Ashley's Beer Card is highly recommended.
-Blue Tractor Brewing...in the dead of winter order their Triple Mac & Cheese. Artisan pizza is good finger food.
-Grizzly Peak...Prince Edward Island Mussels w. cajun sausage. Heavenly (and can feed 2). Solid burgers too.
-Dominick's for a sangria. The food isn't much to write home about, but the atmosphere (outside patio is rec) is great.
-The Black Pearl for 1/2 price apps & speciality martinis.
-Vineology for fresh & modern dishes...froofy but great quality.
-The Ark and The Blind Pig for live music...the former can have some really gems and the latter is a bit grungy but fun.
I could go on and on....and on.
