The coming days will bring us two dining events in conjunction with Native American Heritage Month: Nov. 14 at the Milwaukee Public Museum and Nov. 18 at the Ivy House. We talk about both at the top of this episode, but here’s a little more about the two dinners.

First up is the meal at the museum — part of its full month of Native American Heritage Month programming. Ketapanen Kitchen, the first Indigenous pop-up kitchen and catering company in Chicago, will do the cooking for the event, which starts at 5:30 p.m. and includes a variety of flavors:

Executive Chef Jessica Walks First (Pamonicutt) of the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin is Ketapanen Kitchen’s co-founder and will also speak at the event, as well as the one that follows a few days later.

At the Ivy House on Nov. 18, the experience will get adjusted slightly to a Native American Heritage Tasting Dinner. Organized by Marquette Law School’s Lubar Center for Public Policy Research and Civic Education in partnership with the Gerald L. Ignace Indian Health Center, the evening will include dishes from local chefs, as well as insight from special guests Chef Walks First and Chef Elena Terry.

Here’s what else is happening in Milwaukee’s food scene:

Gene’s Supper Club on the River has returned to Barnacle Bud’s after a successful run last winter.

Ann’s latest batch of Dining Tidbits includes an ode to South Side burger joint Mazos, which ended its 90-year run in September.
