Lunch & Brunch, Milwaukee Style...

I have been SO BAD about finding time to write, so I'm grateful for a day off, college football on the tube (thankfully, my Clemson Tigers pulled off a huge win yesterday so the rest of the bowl games are just gravy), and a comfy spot to sit with my laptop.I have some photos from a meal in Vegas, but I think my disdain for that city has prevented me from posting about the excellent Beef Wellington I had at Mon Ami Gabi. I have more upcoming travel (San Antonio, I'm looking at you!), so I look forward to hitting my "She Ordered What?" stride again in 2016.In the meantime, I have recently tried a few restaurants right here in Milwaukee. They've been on my list of places to try, but it took me 2 1/2+ years to check them off the list!First up was Engine Company 3 in Walker's Point. My brother was in town for Doors Open Milwaukee and I convinced him to venture out to a new, and very cool joint. The Polenta Con Gamberi e Uovo is not on the current menu, but dear gosh...it was GOOD! Excellent, really! It gave me a sense of good southern shrimp and grits from back in the college days in South Carolina. ;-)

 In addition to the places I've detailed here, I've also enjoyed breakfast pizza at Wolf Peach (for three meals!), had many great breakfast dishes at Hotel Metro, and yet I feel like there are a million treasures I still need to visit in Milwaukee. We're so fortunate to have a great culinary scene here!What is your favorite brunch spot? Brunch dish?Cheers!Ker
