A statewide public television series called "Under the Radar Michigan" showcases Ann Arbor in an episode showing this week.
The show, hosted by Tom Daldin, generally features two or three communities each week and highlights some of the local attractions. The current episode features Munising as well as Ann Arbor. Local stops include Afternoon Delight, the Hands-On Museum and the decidedly on-the-radar Zingerman's Deli.

The guide to the episode includes this description:
"Ann Arbor is a very comfortable and intellectual place, where people are passionate about learning, and independent thought; and boy, do they love good food, In Ann Arbor, Tom discovers why a meal at the restaurant, Afternoon Delight, is totally worth the wait; and where Bo Schembechler always went to make sure he looked good for game-day. Then, you'll see how Zingerman's Deli has created a food culture that's become almost a way of life for a lot of people, and find out about a wonderful place you can take the kids, where they can touch everything."
The show airs on a number of public TV stations across Michigan.
