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).

Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett Talks Sports, Art & Wisconsin Nice
I had the pleasure of interviewing Tom Barrett as well last fall (long before the recall election) and he gave some interesting insights on our love of arts, sports, and of course the Wisconsin Nice we are all so familiar with.

Just happened across these photos again of Bomber’s in Milwaukee last fall, most well know for their Bomber’s Burger that was featured on the Food Wars last summer.

West Allis Cheese In The Milwaukee Public Market
While we are on the topic of the Milwaukee Public Market (from yesterday’s post) it would be timely to mention the West Allis Cheese Shop inside the market. They also have two (or more) other shops in the Milwaukee area, but this was the only one we made it to on our last trip. Lots … Continue reading
