I've often said that beer and brats are, today, a great (and important) side dish to everything else we have in greater Milwaukee. So, it's nice to see The Washington Post and Chicago journalist, Guidebook author and traveler Kate Silver agree.
Yesterday's Travel Section on Washingtonpost.com includes a feature story titled "Venturing beyond the beer and brats in Milwaukee." It toasts ramen at Ardent, the Frank Lloyd Wright homes in the area, Leon's Frozen Custard, Sobelman's and more.
Katy Deardorff, Communications Manager at VISIT Milwaukee worked with the writer to develop this story this winter.

A life-long and passionate community leader and Milwaukeean, Jeff Sherman is a co-founder of OnMilwaukee.
He grew up in Wauwatosa and graduated from Marquette University, as a Warrior. He holds an MBA from Cardinal Stritch University, and is the founding president of Young Professionals of Milwaukee (YPM)/Fuel Milwaukee.
Early in his career, Sherman was one of youngest members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee, and currently is involved in numerous civic and community groups - including board positions at The Wisconsin Center District, Wisconsin Club and Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. He's honored to have been named to The Business Journal's "30 under 30" and Milwaukee Magazine's "35 under 35" lists.
He owns a condo in Downtown and lives in greater Milwaukee with his wife Stephanie, his son, Jake, and daughter Pierce. He's a political, music, sports and news junkie and thinks, for what it's worth, that all new movies should be released in theaters, on demand, online and on DVD simultaneously.
He also thinks you should read OnMilwaukee each and every day.
