What is a blog?  For us it is a short blurb that we write when the mood strikes us.  It can be first person, funny or informative. In short, a blog is whatever we want it to be. Published May 24, 2007 at 8:56 a.m.

When I saw the teaser on the cover of the July issue of Saveur, which landed in my mailbox yesterday -- "Our 7 Favorite Steak Houses" -- I just had a feeling. And, yup, there on page 53, Milwaukee is represented.

Five O'Clock Steakhouse is third on the list of seven, even besting Brooklyn's legendary Peter Luger, founded in 1887.

"It's nearly impossible to score a reservation at this 1960s-era supper club, formerly known as Coerper's Five O'Clock Club," writes editor-in-chief James Oseland. "It's desirability and clubby atmosphere are only half the fun, though. The gigantic steaks are deeply browned under furnacelike broilers and emerge tender and juicy in the center. Go with the rib eye: a fattier cut, it arrives practically sizzling."
