"While Laschet's is a full-blown restaurant, expect the personality of a low-key neighborhood bar with the menu of a really solid German restaurant at Resi’s Bierstube, across the street. The wood-clad walls, old photographs, and single string of colorful Christmas lights make the tavern feel like an ‘80s-era basement in Wisconsin—the kind where it would be completely appropriate to wear ski boots and clunk around with a tray of pretzels and chili (both of which are on the menu). But we like bringing a group of friends who want to down cold German beer and big portions of sausages and crispy pork schnitzel on the patio, with no snow in sight." - nick allen, john ringor, veda kilaru
