One dish: Indie Coffee’s classic waffle

Indie Coffee, 1225 Regent St., gets its name from its owners’ (Barrett and J.J. Kilmer) love of indie rock music. The walls feature screen-printed posters for shows like Destroyer at the Catacombs and WSUM’s Party in the Park. But at 7:30 a.m. on a recent Saturday, the young staff was rocking out to Frank Sinatra. “If you could use some exotic booze, there’s a bar in far Bombay!”

Morning Bloom a new breakfast restaurant in the former Sweet Berry location to open

JANESVILLE— A new brunch restaurant, Morning Bloom, is preparing to open in the former Pearl of the Orient and Sweet Berry location, bringing another breakfast and brunch option to the area after Sweet Berry closed just three months after opening. The Alcohol licensing committee Tuesday morning, the committee unanimously recommended a positive approval to the city council for the restaurant's license. Bardil Ahmedi, the new restaurant owner, is opening a similar restaurant that will operate every day from 7 a.m. - 3 p.m. The building at 2701 Milton Ave. housed Pearl of the Orient from late 2022 until early 2024. Rio Brazilian Steakhouse then planned to move into space, but backed out last year. Former owner Tommy Nguyen’s mother Xinh Le owned Sweet Berry. His mom has been the landlord for a building that houses Riverside Family restaurant in Rockford, Ill. Last year, Le had the idea to open a restaurant of her own in Janesville, and the idea blossomed from there. After purchasing the building, they repainted its exterior, repaved the parking lot, cleaned inside and constructed a bakery area that will serve as a mini-café serving items such as pastries, coffee and tea.

5 Best Italian Restaurants in Milwaukee, Wisconsin that Will Make You Feel Like You’re in Rome

Milwaukee, Wisconsin — a city where the lake wind carries the scent of garlic and basil, where Cream City brick glows golden in the afternoon sun, and where neighborhoods are stitched together by generations of dreamers, doers, and storytellers. Here, the city’s heart beats in the laughter of families at Summerfest, in the hush of old churches, in the mingling voices of newcomers and old-timers, artists and teachers, cooks and dreamers. Milwaukee is a place where the skyline is a patchwork of glass and history, where the food scene is a living mosaic — Polish, German, Hmong, Black, Latinx, and Italian — each flavoring the city’s soul.

REVIEW: First time at Kopp’s Frozen Custard

When you hear “Milwaukee,” what foods come to mind?. When I arrived here four years ago, I couldn’t answer that question, and truth be told, it remains that way. Growing up near Chicago, widely regarded as one of the country’s best food cities, I wondered what Milwaukee offered in comparison. I struggled to imagine how any city could surpass the Italian beef and deep-dish pizza I grew up with. Yet, throughout my time here, I kept hearing about some place called Kopp’s. Countless Milwaukee residents, from what I was told, considered it one of the best burger-and-custard spots in Milwaukee.
