Fall Flavors in Michigan: Autumn at The Grazing Table
Hey there food lovers! It's that time of the year again when the leaves turn all shades of gold and red, and the air gets a little crisper. Yes, it's autumn in Michigan, and let me tell you, it's a one of my favorite seasons. This season is the absolute best for anyone with a love for food. From the flavors of pumpkin and maple, sweet potato and ginger, and so much more, fall cooking at its core is classic comfort food. Comfort in the sense that it brings us warmth, its flavors remind us of cooking with family members, and the crisp weather has us wanting to bundle up and light a candle paired with a good book and a spiced muffin or baked good. Here at The Grazing Table, we have embraced autumn with everything we have in us.
The thing about autumn in Michigan is that it brings a cornucopia of flavors to the table. Literally! The farms here are bursting with fresh produce like apples, pumpkins, and squashes. These ingredients are like a symphony of autumn on your taste buds, and they're the star of the show at The Grazing Table.
Fresh and Local: Michigan is all about supporting local farmers and their bountiful harvests. Their commitment to using fresh, locally-sourced ingredients ensures that every bite is packed with autumnal goodness.
Culinary Creativity: Michigan chefs know how to get creative with fall flavors. They're not afraid to experiment, and the results are typically some of the favorite dishes of the year. Here at The Grazing Table, we can attest to the fact that our Autumn Menu is in fact both a team and customer favorite!

One customer had this to say after dining at The Grazing Table:
“Can’t believe I’m just finding out about this place! Had lunch here today and overall 10/10. Cute indie coffee shop vibe. Tried the Turkey Club and the Skillet Mac & Cheese. Both amazing!! The mac and cheese was so rich and creamy and the sandwich was perfect.”
Now, let's talk about the star of the show—the Autumn Menu at The Grazing Table. A menu that includes dishes like:
Rustic Autumn Salad: Crisp greens, roasted sweet potato squash, candied pecans, and a zesty maple vinaigrette make this salad a delightful blend of textures and flavors. It's like a little taste of autumn in every bite.
Award Winning Mac n Cheese: Creamy, cheesy, and oh-so-comforting. The Grazing Table's award-winning mac n cheese is a crowd-pleaser. Perfectly cooked pasta smothered in a rich, cheesy sauce made up of brie, manchego, and cheddar—it's the ultimate comfort food, and names best in Kalamazoo in 2022!
Squash Pasta with Toasted Prosciutto and Pumpkin Pasta Sauce: This dish combines the earthiness of squash pasta with the savory delight of toasted prosciutto and a luscious pumpkin pasta sauce. It's a harmonious blend of flavors that screams "fall."
Kalamazoo Autumn Sammy: If you're craving something hearty, this sandwich is the answer. Packed with autumn goodness, it features roasted turkey, maple sauce, and sweet potato, and apple, all between two slices whole wheat bread. It's like Thanksgiving on a sandwich.
