Gene and I took another trip to Milwaukee this summer, visiting some of our favorite places and some new places as well.
I took Gene to Miss Katie's Diner for some wet Milwaukee barbecue ribs and buttery hash browns. We celebrated my birthday in typical Milwaukee style with a vast intake of calories. We noted changes since our last visit two summers ago; Elliot's Bistro is gone and Von Trier's is just a shadow of its former self.
We got a kick out of the rumors of The Pfister Hotel's haunting. Hey, if it brings the room rates down, I'm all for it.
Check out my photos and journal of the first half of the week in Milwaukee:

Very cute and Happy Birthday.

Have long thought MKE was under-rated (or just under=known) as a worthwhile destination for M'westerners. And....how 'bout that $12 lobster dinner at the Public Market!!

Didn't know about the $12 lobster dinner at the Public Market. Next visit, for sure . . .
