Episode Details

Our latest trip around the area’s culinary scene includes something old (but great), something new in Bronzeville, a look back at an adorable eatery and … rice? Let’s get into it:

• Wisconsin-grown cold-climate rice — Learn about Redstone Rice, a project started by a Marquette biology professor growing a hardy Russian grain varietal at the Mequon Nature Preserve that’s available at Outpost Natural Foods.
• Revisiting Three Brothers — Ann takes us inside Three Brothers, the iconic Serbian restaurant in a former Schlitz tied house open since 1956, to dive into classic comfort dishes like burek, raznjići, ćevapčići, chicken paprikash and lamb shank.
• The West Allis restaurant scene — Third Ward and Walker's Point favorite Lucky Ginger is expanding its Lao and Thai menu to West Allis. Plus, a discussion on why West Allis is becoming a hub for spots like Ruta's and Kung Fu Noodle House.
• New lounge in Bronzeville — Details on I Got Tea, a new dual-concept cafe and lounge from Jimmy Sims, owner of Jimmy's Luxury Lounge.
• Farewell to Cute Robot — Following its abrupt closure, we look back at Cute Robot Japanese Kitchen in Walker's Point, known for its okonomiyaki pancakes, curries and sandos.
