Basket bites
Two local chefs share their favorite picnic recipes.

Uncorked
Wannabee oenophiles have a wide range of options in greater Milwaukee when it comes to informative wine classes and seminars, tastings and free or low-cost opportunities to drop in and sample. In addition, there is a steady stream of vintner visits to area restaurants hosting multiple-course wine and food pairings.

Mad skills
The quickest way to make a fail-safe dessert is to put that recipe book away and instead head over to your favorite market. At least that’s the way chef and restaurateur Sandy D’Amato does it.

Comerford is in her element at vegetarian restaurant Café Manna, 3815 N. Brookfield Road, Brookfield. She’s not only a vegetarian, but also eats vegan, macrobiotic and raw food.
