"Fish boils are a staple of Wisconsin culinary culture — a festive opportunity to gather (a few feet away) around a massive cast-iron kettle of boiling water filled with wire baskets of fish and red potatoes. A splash of kerosene on the fire underneath creates a pillar of flame, causing the kettle to overboil in a fun and slightly terrifying spectacle for onlookers. Door County has plenty of fish boils to choose from, but the dinner-and-a-show at Fish Creek’s 125-year-old White Gull Inn is a true classic of the form. Wrap up the feeding frenzy with a slice of local cherry pie." - Naomi Waxman
