Food & Conversations


A great venue for building relationships, getting to know people, venting and seeking advice is dining out. Below are a few places I adore and should you have a mysterious GPS chip in my arm you will find me at one of these locations. Each location will have a link to their website. Enjoy!!

Cannova's ranks as one of my top choices for dining on any given night. You will not go wrong when you order a thin and crispy crust pizza with their humongous house salad topped with Italian meats, olives, mixed greens and house dressing.

606 North 3rd Street
Wausau, WI

While living in the Wausau, WI area, I frequented Lucci's. Never a disappointment. Lucci's focus is on the slow food movement.

Slow Food Movement

The primary principle behind Chef Jolene Lucci's culinary style is the 'Slow Food Movement'. The 'Movement' is an international organization that was founded in Italy by Italian Master Chef Carlo Petrini and promotes biodiversity in wine and food culture and opposes the standardisation of taste.
What this means for our guests is that we use nothing but the freshest ingredients, organically and locally grown whenever possible. There are no 'canned' sauces or cheap ingredients such as powdered spices or imitation herbs. We strive to provide you with the best dining experience possible and we believe this starts with fresh wholesome foods.

A popular appetizer is the Hot Rock!
This round rock is heated to 500 degrees and the thin slices of Kobe beef on the right are laid on the rock and cooked to perfection.






The walls are a microfiber.
As you can see I had a litttle fun.



I have dined at Kil@wat twice. the first time with 3 girlfriends prior to the Punch Brother's Concert at the Pabst Theatre. The second time with my sister for our annual girl's weekend to Milwaukee. A fantastic treat!
