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.

Forget Your Usual Fish Dinner Because This Wisconsin Supper Club Has Other Plans

Friday fish fry here comes three ways: broasted, baked, or deep-fried cod. That alone would earn a spot on any Wisconsin dinner list. But the same kitchen also slow-roasts prime rib three nights a week. The building has been feeding people since the mid-1950s. It has worn several names over...

WIAA Football preview: Lake Mills tussles with West Salem for spot in state championship game

LAKE MILLS — If the L-Cats’ defense continues to make plays, there will be plenty of reasons to continue flashing the double thumbs-down sign. That sign, taken from the film Gladiator, has been a rallying cry for Lake Mills’ football team, which faces West Salem in a WIAA Division 4 Level 4 game on Friday at 7 p.m. at Stoughton High School for the right to play at Camp Randall Stadium in the state finals. “We’ve been doing the thumbs down gesture since week three against Lakeside,” senior wide receiver and linebacker Blake Bohlman said. “Coach Tyler Huber pulls up a movie clip every week and it’s kind of a theme we roll with. We watched the scene where a thumbs up and he lets them live and thumbs down, he finishes them. It’s a reminder to not get complacent.” Defensive end and tight end JP Brzowski, another one of the team’s 14 seniors, said the thumbs-down sign is about showing no mercy. “It’s been our mentality,” Brzowski said. “We never want to let them have any hope.” To reach their first-ever Level 4 game in the modern era — and second state semifinal in school history (1987) — the

WIAA Girls Swim: EagleJays aspiring to make splash at State Championships

JEFFERSON — The EagleJays, a State Championships mainstay, were shut out of the event last season. This year, however, they will be well-represented. The Jefferson/Cambridge girls swim team will compete in five events at Friday’s WIAA Division 2 State Championships held at the Waukesha South Natatorium, with swimming timed finals beginning at 5:30 p.m. “Technique wise, we’ve been preaching the streamline position and pushing off the wall with big dolphin kicks,” Jefferson/Cambridge girls swim coach Jake Burchfield said. “Mentality wise, we’ve been preaching having a champion mindset and staying focused at practice. The girls have done a great job at that. “They’ve grown mentally and emotionally in terms of the people they are at meets. Last year, no one made it to state. This year five out of the 11 swimmers advanced and our improvement has a ton to do with those two things.” On paper, freshman Anika James has the best chance to bring home a top-six finish and a medal as she is seeded seventh in the 100-yard breaststroke with her sectional-winning time of 1:08.24. “Anika is at her best when there’s pressure or better swimmers to push her,” Burchfield said. “At the last three meets, we’ve been

Boys soccer: 11 area players recognized in RVC all-conference voting

Whitewater senior midfielder Wesley Baker, senior defender Aaron Garcia and senior utility player Frank Mbifi were first-team selections. Baker scored seven goals and added three assists.

Whitewater junior forward Derick Martinez, Jefferson senior forward Noah Skoug, senior defender Braxton Walhovd and junior midfielder Ryder Brusk were second-team honorees. Martinez scored a team-leading 12 goals and added three assists. Skoug had seven goals and two assists. Walhovd made two assists and was instrumental on the backline.

Family of four receives first Rock County Habitat for Humanity house since 2015

JANESVILLE — Miguel and Jessica Gardner Rodriguez waited a year after applying for a Habitat for Humanity house before finally getting to experience the thrill of ownership. In the span of about an hour, they signed the papers to buy the house — and then Habitat for Humanity handed over the keys. “This would be the first time we get to actually make a place our home,” Jessica said. “We’re always worried about how rent goes up, something happens. We just haven’t really been able to make a place. I’m so excited.” The house is on Janesville’s south side. Miguel had a tough time explaining the long wait to get to the house, combined with being able to close on the house and being able to pick up the keys the same afternoon. “It was a smooth transition … So it wasn’t pressure. It was warmth and welcome to go through the process,” Miguel said. Jessica is a former EMS dispatcher-turned high school social studies teacher. Miguel has a bachelors degree in health education and is looking into massage therapy as a career. Miguel is a stay-at-home dad for the time being. While at a party one day, Jessica’s aunt

For the first time in 36 years, a public school district in Wisconsin will dissolve. On Thursday, the School District Boundary Appeal Board voted unanimously to approve the dissolution of the financially troubled Hustisford School District. The decision makes Hustisford the first school district in Wisconsin to dissolve since the Ondossagon School District dissolved into the Ashland, Washburn and Drummond School Districts in 1990.

College football: No. 2 UW-Whitewater hopes to stick the landing on undefeated regular season this weekend at UW-Eau Claire

EAU CLAIRE — The UW-Whitewater football team has already put together a season to remember in 2026. The Warhawks (9-0, 6-0 WIAC) took down UW- Platteville last weekend on the road, leapfrogging the Pioneers in the rankings to be No. 2 in all of Division 3 football while also clinching a share of the 2026 WIAC regular season championship. This Saturday marks the final game of the 2026 regular season for UWW, and the Warhawks could check the box on numerous other accomplishments with a victory on the road at UW-Eau Claire (6-3, 3-3 WIAC). First and most notably, the Warhawks, with a win or a Platteville loss to UW-La Crosse, would capture the outright WIAC title. Additionally, UW-Whitewater would finish the regular season with an undefeated record with a win over the Blugolds. The last time either of those things happened for the Warhawks was in 2021. The Warhawks are also gunning for a top seed for the NCAA Division 3 playoffs, something that could help ensure home field advantage for UW-Whitewater up until the Stagg Bowl. While it’s easy to get wrapped up in the superlatives of a potential Warhawk victory on Saturday, UWW will still have to

'Mary Poppins' comes to life in Milton High School musical

MILTON — Milton High School will bring a Disney classic to the stage in its annual musical. Milton High School students will perform “Mary Poppins” in the Jon Platts Performing Arts Center this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The musical is based on the 1964 classic film, books by P.L. Travers and Broadway musical about a nanny at the home of the Banks family in London. There are 72 students total working on the musical between the cast, and pit and crew orchestra. Students have rehearsed since the first week of the school year in September. Of those students is senior Lucia Wallace playing the lead role as Mary Poppins. “I think she is a great mix between a very proper, feminine, kind person but also she has a little sass sometimes and just has fun sometimes with her friends, with Bert, with Mrs. Corry, who owns the Talking Shop,” Wallace said. The other lead role, Bert, went to Eli Bilhorn. Bert starts the musical as a narrator. Bert’s a bit of a jack of all trades. He is a chimney sweep, a street artist and he cleans the house central to the story. “He has a sly wit to him
