The Most Romantic Steakhouse In Wisconsin Is Tucked Away Where You’d Least Expect

A dining room that started life as an 1861 hotel now serves A5 Miyazaki Wagyu and blue cheese-crusted filets. That combo alone made me sit up and start checking my calendar. The Greek Revival building was once the largest public building in its tiny town. A still-active railway line runs right across the street, which feels almost too charming to be real on a date night.

How Wisconsin shaped a horror legend

Robert Bloch was a familiar name to me. I had read some of his horror stories, I knew he was the author of “Psycho,” and I’d seen the Alfred Hitchcock movie based on it. But one thing I didn’t know until last month: Bloch, legendary author of horror, fantasy and science fiction books, and screenplays — including episodes of the original Star Trek series — lived and worked in Wisconsin for much of his life.

The Duck At This Restaurant In Wisconsin Is So Good, You’ll Crave It All Year

A kitchen in Wisconsin hand de-bones a roast half duck, then pairs it with scratch stuffing and homemade duck gravy. That’s not a weekend project, it’s a house specialty. The plate also comes with cranberry compote, so sweet and tart both get a seat at the table. Meanwhile, hand-painted murals started in 1933 cover the dining room walls around you.

Charles Benson writes farewell post, announces last day at WTMJ

Charles Benson, who's been a mainstay in local news and political coverage, has announced when his final farewell at WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) will be in a heartfelt post on X . "My final farewell at TMJ4 will be on Wednesday during the 4p News," he said in the Nov. 10 post. In the post, which was on Benson's "thoughts for today," he shared that he began his career as a reporter in 1982 in Peoria, Illinois. In Wisconsin, he first worked at WBAY in Green Bay, spent 15 years at Milwaukee's WITI-TV (Channel 6) and three years at WKOW in Madison. He'd return to Milwaukee in 2004, where he'd spend 22 years at TMJ4. Benson and TMJ4 announced on Nov. 2 that he'd be leaving the station. While day-to-day journalism can be hard, demanding, unpredictable and and occasionally exhausting, Benson wrote, it was never simply a job for him. He loved doing it and it was a passion, which he had "the incredible good fortune" of making his life's work. Just last month, Benson was inducted into the Milwaukee Media Hall of Fame . My thoughts for today: For the first time in 44 years, I started my morning without
