Restaurant Knock-offs featuring Tex-Mex Fast Food

Taco Bell is an American-based chain of fast food restaurants founded in 1962, but is also a guilty late-night pleasure! This famous restaurant chain brought Tex-Mex food to the masses and immediately found a loyal following. TB loves to constantly change their menu, sometimes taking away some of our faves in the process. So I’m going to bring back 2 of the classics!

You’ll sample…

  • Taco Bell Enchiritos
  • Taco Bell Mexican Pizza
  • Taco Bell Cinnamon Crispas

WHEN: Wednesday, February 21, 2024; 6:30 – 9:00 pm – FULL!
WHERE: Pewaukee Wagner Park
FEE: $27


Potstickers, Spring Rolls, Egg Rolls oh my!

Three classics, perfect for any occasion, served in Asian restaurants around the world. Who knew a simple fried cylinder could bring together thousands of families and friends? This is the power of food! Its language is universal-understood and appreciated by all. Tonight you’ll sample 3 of my favorite creations…

  • Fried Thai Spring Rolls with Homemade Sweet and Sour Sauce
  • Eggroll in-a-Bowl
  • Shrimp Potstickers

WHEN: Wednesday, March 13, 2024; 6:30 – 9:00 pm – FULL!
WHERE: Pewaukee Wagner Park

Deep Dish Pizza and More…

Even though I’m sure there are plenty of people who love deep dish pizzas, this food is controversial to other people. Since this pizza has a thick bread crust and is covered in copious amounts of sauce, some people think that it’s more of tomato pie and isn’t a true Neapolitan pizza. I, for one, refuse to take a side on this age-old debate and instead want to introduce you to a holiday called National Deep Dish Pizza Day. This day falls on April 5th annually (sorry, we just missed it, but you can celebrate anyway) and

is sure to not only bring joy to deep dish pizza lovers but also disdain from those who oppose this food. Where do you fall in the deep-dish pizza debate? I guess we’ll find out tonight when I prepare…

  • Classic Pizza Shop Salad with Fried Salami and Italian Vinaigrette
  • Chicago-style Deep Dish Pizza
  • Gooey Deep-dish Individual Chocolate Chip Cookies with Ice Cream

WHEN: Wednesday, April 17, 2024; 6:30 – 9:00 pm – FULL!
WHERE: Pewaukee Wagner Park
FEE: $27


Steak!

May is National Beef Month and retailers everywhere offer great savings to boost their sales. So now is the best time to expand your beef recipes from pot roast and burgers to something better! I’m going

to bring you a whole menu perfect for entertaining. You’ll sample…

  • Shrimp Scampi
  • Dip with Baguette Chips
  • Pan-Seared & Butter-Basted Steak
  • Sweet Potato Hash
  • No-bake Key Lime Parfaits
