Brandy Old Fashioned? Check. Friday fish fry? Of course. Enduring nostalgia? Yes, please. These are just a few of the things that make Wisconsin supper clubs special. But supper clubs are so much more than strong drinks and indulgent food. They represent part of Wisconsin’s identity. 

To get the dish on what elevates a spot from simply being a restaurant to being a full supper club, we caught up with Madison Magazine Editor-in-Chief, Andrea Behling, who recently published the definitive Wisconsin supper club criteria list.

Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers.
