Piggly Wiggly on Nov. 2 announced it would purchase the stores at 300 E. Ann St., Kaukauna, and 575 Swan Road, De Pere, effective Jan. 31. Mike Olwig, the company's president, said the 100% employee-owned grocery chain turns its special sales, like a one-day meat sale and bratfest, into full-blown events. "We do it above and beyond your normal Piggly Wiggly," Olwig said. "We like to have fun with them. It’s definitely an event in the store."

We were excited about that," Olwig said. He sees it as a win-win-win proposition: The company expands its operations,

These Crab Cakes Are Giving Wisconsin Seafood Lovers A Reason To Return

Crab cakes sit on the same appetizer list as homemade sauerkraut balls and a Bavarian Scotch egg. That lineup alone tells you this kitchen enjoys a little friendly chaos. The building dates back to 1948, and one family kept the lights on starting in 1967. I love it when a place carries that much history without acting stuffy about it.
