It's safe to say there's a fair amount of commotion going on there in preparation for tonight's grand opening. The bar opens at 4:00, and dinner service begins ...

Those dishes contain things like steaming-hot, slightly sweet pork buns (my favorite), shrimp ...

Menomonee St., 414-897-0555) is a "now open" sign. Just happened the other day. Owner Jay Schiek was pleased with his "pre-season scrimmage" (trial run), so the flood gates ...
