Michigan's food culture doesn't get enough credit, and anyone who has eaten in this state knows exactly why that needs to change.

Welcome back to Traverse City, Josh & Jase! Your visit to Sleder’s in January was so special to us. We have one of the pics you took with our crew framed and on the bar where all can enjoy the smiles. 🙏We’re excited for all the establishments you visit on this trip. There’s also a certain moose hoping you’ll stop by Randolph Street again. 😅 We love you guys. Keep having fun! 🤩 🫎🍒☀️💖👏 Jase in America Josh From England Sleder's Family Tavern

This photo is wild 😂…

This picture sums up me and Josh!

We visited a special family run restaurant in Traverse City, Michigan called ‘Sleder’s Family Tavern’. Interesting fact… The tavern dates back to 1882 and is widely recognized as Michigan’s oldest continuously operating restaurants. (Now that’s cool!) 🤩😳

It was an incredible place, with a great atmosphere and people!

Part of the tradition of this place is to kiss the mounted moose on the wall called Randolph and it’s meant to bring you good luck. 😂

Safe to say I understood the assignment… Josh kinda just threw a random kiss out there 😭😭

Good times ☺️🇺🇸
