Campfire Conversation: 

Eric and Ana welcome not only Josh Ostermann into The Cabin, but Ron Faiola, author of Wisconsin Supper Clubs: An Old Fashioned Experience as well as two follow-up books on the topic du jour: Wisconsin Supper Clubs. As the second part of our supper club series, we again discussed the merits of a Wisconsin Supper Club versus places that use the term in other states - it can be vastly different. We also discussed Ron’s experiences with researching and writing his books on supper clubs across the state before diving into some more examples of terrific clubs to visit. They included places in cities, like Milwaukee’s Jackson Grill - one example of a supper club that had closed for a while but reopened - and Toby’s Supper Club in Madison. We went to different corners of the state, from 3 Mile Supper Club in the extreme southwest to Hob Nob in the Racine/Kenosha area in the southeast and from Dreamland Supper Club in South Range near Superior in the northwest to River’s Edge outside Marinette in the northeast. Unique features or histories of some supper clubs were discussed, including the first chilled salad bar in the United States making its debut at the Sky Club in Plover; the many many many antlers and animal pelts at Antlers Supper Club in Bonduel; the beautiful surroundings at Ishnala on Mirror Lake in Wisconsin Dells; the 160-oz. Steak challenge at Black Otter Supper Club in Hortonville; and more. Get inspired and find a cozy, tasty supper club near you by listening to this episode, and feel free to check out Ron’s full research with his books and website, links are below!
