Next Monday afternoon my sister-in-law and brother-in-law are visiting. While they are here we want to share a few of our areas Hidden Gems! Check out our plans for Tuesday.
Bright and early we are headed to The Coffee House at Chestnut and Pine. This unique quaint shop offers the most delicious
On our way out of town - we are making a pit stop at the ÆppelTreow Winery & Distillery & Brightonwoods Orchard. A beautiful orchard located right next to Bong State Park. Great stop for delicious variety of apples and of course some tasty wine. My favorite is the Pear Wine!
The area is beautiful making this stop a very relaxing fun time. I am hoping for a beautiful Fall day. The leaves are beautiful this time of year.
Our next stop will be the Potawatomi Casino in Milwaukee! Located downtown Milwaukee the casino is fantastic. Great gaming and excellent food! This is a do not want to miss attraction in our area!
While at the casino we are planning to have supper at the WILD EARTH CUCINA ITALIANA Restaurant! My favorite is the Shrimp Scampi , Gulf shrimp tossed in garlic, spinach, tomato and white wine served over a bed of linguine pasta finished with toasted bread crumbs. DELICIOUS!! WildEarth is a true hidden gem. Not many seek out a casino for a superb restaurant.
On our way home I told my hubby we have got to stop at Adrian's Frozen Custard - the absolute best custard in the whole world! At least we think so!!!
What is really nice is no matter what happens to our cars before Tuesday - we are still going! Because another of our Hidden Gems is RelayRides. Even in small town USA Burlington, WI we have RelayRides? RelayRides is the place to a rent car at a very reasonable price. Some car rentals are so expensive - Not RelayRides. RelayRides is also a great place for you to rent your car. Yep! you can even rent your car. Perfect way to make some extra cash!
Do you have some Hidden Gems in your area?
Vanilla latte? Yum! Sounds like a really nice place to visit. Here in New England we have tons of hidden gems.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great time. We always enjoys the Casino's. They are great to just get out and have a little fun. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteMy husband loves the casinos, too. Always a good time!
DeleteI love hearing about out of the way places. This sounds like a great trip. In Philly there is a coffee place I love, tucked away in University City.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure if we do or not. I don't venture around town as much as I used to. But I do know there are some really interesting antique shops!!! I love those!
ReplyDeleteWow, I wish we had someplace like Relay Rentals here! My cousins rented their cars out in Louisville at Kentucky Derby time almost every year and made some extra income. I love that idea! Lots of hidden gems!

ReplyDeleteAdrian's Frozen Custard sounds like it would be worth the trip alone :) Thanks for the great review. I love learning about new places to visit.

ReplyDeleteHow fun, these places all sound great. Who knew there was a casino there, I definitely wouldn't have known if you didn't point it out. May have to check that out when we visit.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun time! I miss Wisconsin
ReplyDeleteThere is a place called Moonbeam Cafe that is kind of out of the way. It certainly is a hidden gem!
ReplyDeleteI love finding the hidden gems! When we went back to visit family in Maine I found a few new and some older places we hadn't been to yet - and it really made our vacation so much fun.
ReplyDeleteI've never been to Wisconsin but I would love to one day!
ReplyDeleteI live in a really small town. So all of my favorite gems are quite a drive for me, with the exception of one. There is this small place in town which has been there for at least 40 years. Even though I am in the north, this place has a nice variety of homemade southern style foods , including game foods as elk, bison, gator and shark.
ReplyDeleteI have a few friends who say I would LOVE Wisconsin! Just for the variety of activities and small and large town attractions.
ReplyDeleteI love visiting local winerys when we can. I would love to go to Wisconsin someday
ReplyDeleteHaving much needed sibling time over a great meal, and casino fun sounds like my kind of date! Hope you all spend some great time together!
