Wisconsin Supper Club Cookbook Reviews

While supper clubs are little-known in much of the country, they thrive in the upper Midwest, a fact proven in Mary Bergin's Wisconsin Supper Club Cookbook. Here are recipes for hearty food and stout drinks along with vivid descriptions of the supper-club dining experience, including Friday fish fries and Saturday prime rib as well as old-fashioned cocktails and after-dinner ice-cream libations. For those of us who prize culinary tradition, the charm of this book goes beyond enticing recipes. Mary Bergin has created a glorious tribute to a uniquely American way of going out to eat. -- Michael Stern, Roadfood.com
Mary Bergin's Wisconsin Supper Club Cookbook is an understated title. If you never prepare one recipe, it remains a worthy guide to Wisconsin's regional supper clubs. Bergin offers salient histories to convey why customers loyally embrace these clubs as community treasures. Someday, you may wish to prepare those recipes to remember when and recapture a memory.
