Michigan bars and restaurants are set to reopen their doors in less than a week (February 1), but one West Michigan restaurant is already open (and has been for a while).
Marlena s Bistro & Pizzeria had their food license suspended by the Michigan Department of Agriculture & Rural Development on January 20 after being cited multiple times for remaining open for indoor dining.
The restaurant s owner, Marlena Pavlos, stated on the eatery s Facebook page that by remaining open, she is simply exercising my constitutional rights.
Pavlos is set to appear in court via Zoom on February 1 regarding the future of her food license.
