Food Recommendation Friday

Jennings & Company 210 1st Street N Wisconsin Rapids, WI The food at Jennings & Company is terrific. Quite a few people have recommended that I go to Jennings and now I know why. Their food is fantastic! They buy their products locally and everything is made fresh to order. The appetizers are excellent. The Wisconsin Cheese Curds are appealing but the Breaded Mozzarella Sticks are simply delightful. Love pretzels? Love soft pretzels? Then their Soft Pretzel Bread Sticks should be the first thing you order. The cheese sauce that comes with it is out of this world. One bite will awaken your taste buds. I also highly recommend you try their Steamed Pork Dumplings and Steamed Mussels. For the veggie lovers out there, Jennings has scrumptious salads. Savor the flavor of the Mediterranean Salad. The Blacken Chicken Caesar Salad is crafted to perfection, not to mention every Wisconsinite must try their Wisconsin Berry Salad.    Looking

Join us for a entertaining evening!

Food Recommendation Friday: A Local Favorite

Ida’s Tavern 1981 Lincoln St, Wisconsin Rapids Savor the taste of Ida’s Tavern’s cuisine. Start your meal with a fulfilling appetizer. Awaken your taste buds with their Nachos Supreme. Feed your Cheesehead cravings with their scrumptious Cheese Curds or the Garlic Cheese Bread. If you’re someone who likes variety, the Munchie Basket has a little of everything! Get a mouth-watering lunch with one of their wraps. The Grilled Chicken Wrap is crafted to perfection. The Ham and Cheese is delicious. You cannot forget about their BLT Wrap, it happens to be my favorite. The flavor of the BLT explodes in your mouth. It’s a little spicy but the kind of spicy that warms your heart and leaves your taste buds begging for more. Besides their wraps, Ida’s has fantastic burgers. The Mushroom Swiss is a classic, but the Nacho Burger is one of a kind. Ida’s signature mild or mexi chili covers the burger and is topped with
