Wednesday

Club Garibaldi
2501 S. Superior St., (414) 483-6335
Tag and Joe do wings up right, 30 cents all night, and they come with the perfect amount of heat. Medium's the standard, hot'll have you wiping the sweat from your brow. If you still have a soft spot for the old PBR, come a day early for their $1 Pabst special.

Hooligan's Super Bar
2017 E. North Ave., (414) 273-5230
Monday through Thursday, sneak out of work an hour early and take advantage of this North Avenue favorite with their happy hour menu from 4 to 6. For $2.99 or less, you can choose from sliders, Hooliwings, quesadillas, chicken tenders, nacho cheese fries, jalapeno poppers, chips and salsa, or mozzarella marinara.

Thursday

Metro Bar and Cafe
411 E. Mason St., (414) 225-3270
Metro Bar and Café has created a niche in being one of the city's all-around best places to people watch. Thursday nights take the cake with a delicious complimentary buffet featuring assorted meats and cheeses, pizzas and shrimp. Yes, I said complimentary. Pair up your free hors d'oeuvres with something fun from their martini and wine specialty lists

Friday

China Gourmet
117 E. Wells St.
(414) 272-1688
If you're fish fried out, China Gourmet's buffet features everything but the wok and touts the best crab rangoon in town. For your tiny contribution of $12.95, expect to be able to fill your belly with soup, salad, fruit, appetizers and about 10 different entrée offerings including cashew chicken, General Tso's chicken, pepper steak, salmon, shrimp stir fry, fried rice and Peking duck.

Elsa's on the Park
833 N. Jefferson St., (414) 765-0615
T.G.I.F. takes on a more upscale meaning when you associate it with a big platter of chilled cocktail shrimp, French bread, and tangy cocktail sauce and lemons ($14.50). On a hot Friday night, martini in hand, there are few better ways to ring in the weekend.

Kelly's Bleachers
5218 W. Bluemound Rd., (414) 258-9837
Friday means one thing, and that's a fish fry, which according to Kelly's is the best in town. We agree that it's one of the most reasonable. Feast on $6.50 baked cod, Italian cod and fan-tailed shrimp. Of course, a fish fry just wouldn't be a fish fry without fries, crab pasta, coleslaw and rye bread, and here they have it all for one low price.

Butch's new BIG MOUTH FROG, 700 E. Layton Ave., offers the most reasonable and delicious steak filet and pork chop sandwiches. Check the whiteboard specials. Panko shrimp were huge and perfectly done. His famous mushrooms come with most menu offerings. $5 cosmos at all times have become the rage in the Bay View area. Butch, of steakhouse fame, has another winner at hand and he's doing the cooking! Perch fish fry on Fridays is packing them in, so get there early. They open at 4PM, but closed Sundays.

That happened to me two weeks ago! I asked them what the minimum order had to be for delivery and she stopped me after I said pan pizza. I figured she thought that was all I was ordering and didn't want to go through the hassle. And she said every other location was out too so you know they have premade dough for those. I shouldn't be surprised.

There are a lot of Mexican restaurants that offer all u can eat crab legs I know that Fiesta Girabaldi's on Bluemound had it on Mondays, there is also another place on 60th/Burnham, Las Palmas, where I've been to an all u can eat crab leg night. I would just call and ask if they still offer and if so, what night. Both places were quite reasonable and came with other food as well!
