Oakwood Proper Burgers’ Breakfast Fries

Tastemaker

Did you know that TC’s Oakwood Proper Burgers now does equally proper breakfast every day of the week? The retro burger joint made the expansion from weekends late last year, and there’s now plenty to choose from Monday through Sunday. The Breakfast Fries ($11) are a must, filling that potato-sized hole in your belly and then some. The fries are topped with sausage, bacon, shredded cheese, and then leveled up with spicy ketchup and rosemary gravy. Whether you pair the fries with a breakfast sandwich or go for something a little sweeter—we’re fans of the Cinnamon Biscuit ($5), made fresh with Bay Bread biscuits—you’ll be glad you started your day under that pink and gold awning. (P.S. On Sundays, breakfast is served all day!) Find Oakwood at 1108 E Eighth St. in Traverse City.
