Random Wisconsin Cheese Things…
Rna across several photos of random Wisconsin Cheese Things that actually have on a smidgen to do with cheese and thought it would be fun to share. Seems like we’ll put the word CHEESE on nearly anything to get people’s attention, and probably because it works. After all, I took these photos didn’t I… * … Read more

Ella’s Deli & Ice Cream Parlor – Past, Present & Fantasy
I had the pleasure of dining with our dear friend Steve “The Owner” Tate at Ella’s Deli several months ago and it was quite the pleasing experience for a number of reasons, particular the great deli food and ice cream, but also the decor. So many things from the past and present on display, yet … Read more
Genuine Wisconsin Cheese Curds Imported For Rose Bowl
While imported may be the worst use of the word. since both Claifornia and Wisconin are part of the United States, it does imply that our Wisconsin cheese is so good that it feels as though it should be an import. Good to see out buddies at Ellsworth getting some national media attention. Here’s a … Read more
Wisconsin Cheese Curds In California
Seems as though my old stomping grounds in Orange County (California) is rife with good taste. I found these Ellsworth Cooperative Creamery cheese curds from Wisconsin in a Sprouts chain (sort of a Whole Foods, but nowhere near the price gouger) of gorcery and health food stores. They also had Henning’s chipotle cheddar there (Henning’s … Read more
Recently Discovered 40-Year-Old Wisconsin Cheddar
When Edward Zahn decided in May to close his cheese shop in Oconto, he made a discovery that is going to drive cheese lovers more bonkers than the 15-year-old cheddar released by Hook’s Cheese in Mineral Point in 2009. In the back of his walk-in cooler, Zahn, 73, found several wooden boxes of cheddar … Read more
John Hawks Pub in Milwaukee
Whenever I’ve got to Downtown Milwaukee to meet with my man Carlo at Marcus Theatres, we step downstairs to the John Hawks Brew Pub from some great English fair (or fish fry on the one Friday I was there). Love this place. Great food, great view of the river, espeecially if you sit out on … Read more
Monk’s Bar & Grill At The Wilderness & Downtown
Wisconsin Dells has a ton of great eateries to choose from, but none with as good of a bacon cheeseburger as Monks. I ate at both locations when shooting in the Dells. Even had a few beers at the Wilderness Resort location while watching a wall of sports, since I was staying at the Wilderness … Read more
Benvenuto’s Italian Grill in MIDDLETON
My good friends at the Wisco Hotel Group recently opened up a new Benvenuto’s Italian Grill in Middleton Wisconsin adjacent to the Wisco Hotel Group Holiday Inn & Suites (West Madison) and gave me the chance to test it out pre-opening night. Great food, reasonably priced, and a Wisconsin original chain of restaurants too (started in … Read more
Where Antiques & Cheese Come Together
Tim and Tom’s Cheese shop is located just outside of Kenosha, right off the freeway a few miles away from Mars Cheese Castle, but it’s a world of difference from the Castle filled with cheese because it also offers up an awesome variety of antiques and unique items for sale. Lots of collectables, old liscense … Read more
Wisconsin Cheese Mart In Milwaukee
Wisconsin Cheese Mart in Milwaukee (just down the street from Usingers) is the kind of cheese shop that John Cleese would be more than welcomed to visit since they have nearly every kind of cheese he could possibly list off. Not only that, most of the cheeses here are many of the Wisconsin originals made … Read more
Usingers Sausages: Famous For A Reason
While some of these photos are from last fall when we visited Usingers Famous Sausages, we also had the cahnce to try some more of it this weekend when first arriving in Milwaukee and it’s pretty clear that they know what they are doing. My personal favorite was the smoked Canadian Bacon (had no idea … Read more
