Potato Pancakes

I have been searching for the best Potato Pancake in WI. Years ago I got hooked on the Potato Pancakes at Hesser's Supper Club in Oshkosh, WI. These things were so good they were like a side of crack for your Fish Fry.

My search continues. Please help out the Big Ragu and leave a comment below with the name and location of the restaurant you feel has the best Potato Pancakes in WI. I will check it out and review the results later in the year.

Inside the Cheddar Curtain


They always say that when you retire you will have less time than when you were working.  It's true, over the last 6 years I have not learned to say no.  I find myself spending 40-60 per week on non-profit volunteer jobs.  So I guess it is no surprise that when my wife Marilyn suggested I start a food blog on fish frys and cocktails in Northern WI I jumped at it.  It pays the same as my other volunteer jobs and I can do it when ever I want, anyway, I have to eat - right?

Northern Wisconsin is home to a multitude of out of the way places and local watering holes with some great food.  In keeping with a true Wisconsin colloquialism we will rate each one on the Bubbler scale of one to five.  For those of you who are asking what the hell is a bubbler, just come to Wisconsin and ask a local where the bubbler is and they will point one out to you.  Once you venture inside the Cheddar Curtain all bets are off.
