Spicy pork dumplings swimming in chili sauce, cumin lamb, and bubbling hot pot all share one menu with crab rangoon. That combo alone made me stop scrolling. Then I learned the place sits in a plain strip center. The menu is huge, and it doesn’t hold back on heat. Mapo...

7 Wigilia Christmas Eve Dishes from Chicago, Milwaukee, and Buffalo

I use AI to help draft these articles. Every recipe and every fact in them is checked before publishing. In Polish-American households in Chicago's Avondale neighborhood, in Milwaukee's Polish South Side, and in Buffalo's Broadway-Fillmore district, December 24 had one rule above all others: you did not sit down until someone spotted the first star. When it appeared, the family broke the oplatek, the thin pressed wafer embossed with a Nativity scene, and passed it person to person around the table. Then the meal began.

Between Chicago And Milwaukee Is A Scenic Forest Preserve With Wildlife, Trails, And Wetlands

It's hard to imagine Illinois without picturing the expansive waters of Lake Michigan. However, the Prairie State is home to over 91,400 ponds and lakes, from the packed boater's paradise of the Chain O'Lakes to small ponds replenished by snowmelt. One charmingly local lake is hidden within Sun Lake Forest Preserve, a 629-acre park home to oak forests, recovering wetlands, and over 100 acres of replanted prairie.

Parker graduate a Brewers mascot during World Series season, creates baseball-inspired art

MILWAUKEE — Addison Butts was in search of a summer job late last year, and applied for a gig with the Milwaukee Brewers. The 2025 Parker High was worried she didn’t have enough knowledge about baseball. This summer, she was a sausage. Butts got a front-row seat to watch the Brew Crew win the World Series for the first time. And she got to do much of it dressed as a bratwurst. “I told them about how my grandma loved the Brewers and I grew up with the Brewers around,” Butts said. Butts’ grandmother loved the Brewers and listened to game broadcasts on the radio up until her death in 2017. Butts went to her first Brewers game with her grandmother and father. “It helps me feel a lot more connected to her now and I know she’d be super proud of me,” Butts said. Butts would migrate through the stadium and interact with fans — though she didn’t participate in the on-field races for which the mascots are known. Butts worked at every home playoff game. “It was just crazy toward the end of the game. When it got really really intense, there was nobody walking around the stadium.

9 Wisconsin Italian Delis Serving Sandwiches That Barely Fit In Your Hands

One Wisconsin deli sells its hot subs in a size simply called Grande. I love that they skip the polite word large. Grande sounds like a dare, and honestly, I respect it. That name sums up a whole category of sandwich around here. Another market on this list has been feeding its neighborhood since 1913. A third bakes oversized sub bread fresh in the style of an old Chicago deli, and plenty more stack meat until the bread gives up.
