World Cuisine in Wisconsin, Part 2
While we enjoy traditional and often unique or mind-boggling food creations at Wisconsin State Fair for the rest of the week, Eric, Ana, and guest Apurba Banerjee head across the state to look at restaurants serving fare from across the globe (some of it on a stick, too!) - and not just the usual Chinese, German, or Mexican fare we see frequently. We’re diving deeper to help you discover where you can go to enjoy meals created in faraway cultures that will expand your palate and please your taste buds.

Campfire Conversation:
Eric and Ana welcome frequent collaborator Apurba Banerjee back into The Cabin for a second look at “Worldwide Cuisine in Wisconsin.” Sure, we love our cheese, brats, and beer but sometimes you want to experience something less common and more exotic. We head across the state to find places you can enjoy dishes from around the world. We highlight southeast Asia a fair amount in this conversation, so Apurba does a little analysis on the differences in, for example, Korean cuisine vs. Thai vs. Lao, especially with their use of spices. Eric, Ana, and Apurba then dive into a variety of locations where you can experience Filipino Lumpia, Korean BBQ, Pho (watch how you pronounce it!), Tom Yum and Tom Kai Soup, Momo, and more southeast Asian dishes. We also discuss African dishes such as Sambua, Josef rice, peanut stew, fufu (a pounded yam), spicy beef eugusi, and more; Indian and Himalayan dishes from Smoke Tandoori Chicken and Lamb Chops to achaar, Biryani dishes, Dal, Chickpea Masala, and more.We also touch on South America with emerging Peruvian and Venezuelan cuisine becoming increasingly popular across Wisconsin. Plus, a little shout-out to Polish food with a pierogi place on the peninsula - of Door. Where you can get these fantastic foods? We share it with you in “World Cuisine in Wisconsin, Part 2,” this week’s episode of The Cabin!
