Recenzii

"An eminently useful book, directing readers to dozens of colorful eateries we wouldn't otherwise find, Cafe Wisconsin is so much more than a guide. It is stirring evidence that despite the onslaught of corporate fast food, small-town cafes thrive, resonant with local character and perfumed by the good smells of sizzled bacon and oven-warm rhubarb pie."—Jane and Michael Stern, authors of Road Food

"Stuttgen explored Wisconsin’s back roads to discover humble, small town restaurants that still serve good home cooking. . . . She is also interested in the role cafes play as meeting places in the community. . . . Cafe Wisconsin celebrates the people, the food, and the traditions of small town Wisconsin that these cafes represent."—Eau Claire Leader-Telegram

"Stuttgen is at her best when capturing a cafe’s color, with its clientele as part of the decor. You get a sense of the atmosphere and what it is that keeps the regulars coming."—Capital Times
