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.

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.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Editor Greg Borowski Knows Better Than This. For Shame! [JESS NOTES 11/12]

I know Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Editor Greg Borowski knows better than this. He just does. C’mon, Greg! Get real. I used to sit across from Greg in the newsroom before I decided to pursue a teaching career instead (it’s hard to have a young kid in journalism.) Greg was a good reporter. To be honest, I never really saw him as having editor potential, though. He was too introverted and a bit surly. More like an intense absent-minded scientist type in a rumpled shirt with a lot of intensity boiling inside (not that different from his brother, who is one of the only sane #Milwaukee County judges, David Borowski, and one of the most bombastic). Pity the poor readers who called the newsroom to complain and got an earful from Greg. I heard him blow a gasket a few times.

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.

How a Milwaukee gas station transformed from a place of convenience into a community hub

How do you usually pick a gas station when you need to fill up your tank? Most times, it comes down to location and how expensive it is. But for a loyal base of customers on Milwaukee’s South Side, their only factor is going to support Faisal Bhimani. He owns the BP and Citgo gas stations across the street from one another on Howard and Clement Avenues. His customers return not because of prices, but because of the community he’s built.

Affordable apartments proposed to replace underused Wauwatosa offices

An affordable apartment community is being proposed to redevelop a Wauwatosa site that now has two underused office buildings. The four-story, 59-unit apartment building would be constructed at 11400 W. Blue Mound Road, said developer Brandon Methu. It would provide one- to three-bedroom units for moderate-income families. Methu's firm, Northernstar Companies LLC , is co-developing the project, known as Bluemound Commons, with Wisconsin Partnership for Housing Development Inc. – a Madison-based nonprofit. Bluemound Commons is among the applicants for the 2027 round of affordable housing tax credits. Developers that receive affordable housing tax credits must generally provide at least 85% of a building's apartments at below-market rents to people earning no higher than 60% of the local median income for 30 years. The tax credits are sold to raise cash, with the developers then obtaining bank loans and other funding sources to complete their financing packages. The Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority usually announces in spring which developments are receiving tax credits. Bluemound Commons would meet a strong demand for affordable apartments for families in Wauwatosa, as opposed to apartments targeting just elderly renters, Methu told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The site is a strong location in part because

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

One Milwaukee Restaurant Is Giving Wisconsin Pizza Lovers A Delicious Reason To Visit

The pizza recipe here hasn’t changed since the 1950s. Same crust, same tangy sauce, same family running the show. The crust is so thin it earned its own trademarked name. Every pie gets cut into little squares, which makes stopping at just one piece a real challenge. I love...
