Each week on This Bites, dining critic Ann Christenson from Milwaukee Magazine and Radio Milwaukee’s resident foodie Tarik Moody dig into the city’s culinary and restaurant culture to help you find new spots, old favorites and the best ingestibles around Milwaukee.

    Tarik and Ann talk sausage, and of course, how it's made

    Tarik and Ann talk around a few corners: St. Kate's new brunch, Georgia peaches and New Mexico pistachios. But the big deal is sausage, including how it's made and different cuts and grades.

    Taco truck talk, the James Beard Awards and 'Top Chef'

    Taco truck talk, the James Beard Awards and 'Top Chef'

    While the first food truck was likely a chuck wagon or perhaps the Wienermobile, you could argue that it didn’t reach its ideal form until tacos got involved. We’ve got plenty of that variety around Milwaukee, all of which you can follow on social media to keep up with their whereabouts.

    Ann and Tarik talk about a few of their favorites at the top of this episode, and you can find more in the taco truck guide in the latest issue of Milwaukee Magazine. Also in this episode, you'll hear a Dan-heavy roundup of other culinary news around Milwaukee:
    First up, the James Beard Awards were finally handed out earlier this week, and sadly neither Dan Jacobs nor Dan Van Rite went home with hardware.Dan Jacobs did, however, make it to Top Chef’s first finale episode (feels like that shouldn’t be a thing), which left Wisconsin for sunny Curaçao.And if that doesn’t have you Dan’d out, Mr. Jacobs also landed the cover story for the June edition of Milwaukee Magazine.In non-Dan news, the Wolf on Broadway has decided to rebrand and become Uncle Wolfie’s Dinner Diner.

    Dog menus, Dumpling Fest and even more 'Top Chef'

    Dog menus, Dumpling Fest and even more 'Top Chef'

    Because dogs are great, most Milwaukee’s eateries are more than happy to cater to canines — usually with a bowl of water or a couple treats. But a few have really stepped it up with proper dog-specific menu items or, in the case of this episode’s lead item, entire dog menus.

    We also cover the rest of the city's culinary scene, including a couple unfortunate closings, even more Top Chef, the return of Dumping Fest and the debut of ... VeganMania?

    Dining with dad, resurrected pizzerias and "The Milwaukee Cookbook"

    We're covering a lot of ground on this episode, starting with where to take your pop for Father's Day food. There's also the revival of two revered pizza places, a new Japanese restaurant in Bay View, a very Milwaukee cookbook and, of course, lively conversation about the latest Top Chef and the great fish boil debate it sparks.

    A food tour of West Allis, Yemeni coffee and ... the Taj Mahal?

Other highlights include Junior's BBQ, Yemeni cafes, Indian food in Hales Corners and Honeypie's celebration of 15 years in Bay View.
