Bleu Restaurant & Lounge

We never really thought ourselves foodies when we were younger. Well, I should say, I, David, never thought myself a foodie when I was younger. Middle-class Midwesterners didn’t really think on that kinda thing too much. I ate what my momma made me and we celebrated big events with Chilis or Texas Roadhouse. Tasting menus felt like the epitome of […]

Tipsy Taco & Tequila Bar

Tipsy Taco & Tequila Bar aka “the taco place across from Sangria’s.” Before you get defensive and think it’s rude for someone to open a Mexican restaurant across the street from another Mexican restaurant, you should know that they are basically sisters. With that in mind, we were excited to try it because we are big fans of Sangria’s and […]

Tony Nyugen: Vietnamese Cuisine – CLOSED

It was a chilly Wisconsin Friday. We were excited to be done with work. The dinner plans before us? An ever tasty frozen salmon filet over greens. There was a moment we both looked at each other and the look in our eyes was “How about nah?” The first thing out of Lindsay’s mouth post look was “I’m feeling some […]

Fox River Brewing Company

When you’re fishing, have you ever seen a blue bobber? You never actually see a blue colored bobber tied to the end of a line. It’s always a little red and white sphere that dips below the surface of the water to tell you the fish is about to get away with your worm. The only place I’ve seen a […]

The Exchange

An upbeat coffee house and eatery dedicated to the community of the 920. We ate waffles and had coffee. Was it good? Click to find out. (I don’t believe in clickbait so yes it was delicious)

Cozzy Corner

I’ve walked downtown Appleton many times. Most of them for the farmer’s market, to grab a cup of coffee, or attend concerts at Houdini Plaza. Despite these, I never noticed the Cozzy Corner. It doesn’t really pop out at you, tucked away in the shadow of the PAC. You’d have to peek down a side street and hope your eyes […]

Cannova’s

When there’s pizza, everyone is family. And Cannova’s supplies some really good pizza.
