I love a good Reuben and I think I have had some of the best around the country. Nosh-A-Rye on Longboat Key is as authentic as you get. Well a new restaurant opened here in Oconomowoc just the other day. For those of you locals this is the old Chuck’s Supper Club. The new establishment is Burke’s Lakeside and it is located on Valley Road about a mile and a half west of Hwy 67—right across the street from Silver Lake.

I met a friend there for lunch today and quickly scanned the menu for a Reuben and to my relief they offered one with a huge plate of fresh fries. My midline could do without the fries, but I have to try them for the sake of the blog! This scrumptious sandwich offered thick strips of corned beef a light sauce and not too much sauerkraut on a beautifully toasted marble rye all for an affordable $8.95. We sat on the deck since it was less humid today, but the inside of this new eatery is very trendy with linen table cloths, nice flatware and a comfortable environment. I definitely want to try their dinner menu in the near future. I think I found my new favorite place for the trusty Reuben.

Have you ever done this? You find a great eating establishment and you order the same thing each time not wanting to switch to something different? I do it all the time, but last night rather than having the world famous Reuben at The Rochester Deli, I tried their Italian Panini and the Devonshire Panini. No I didn’t have two entrees, my wife, Lori ordered one and I the other then we swapped halves. WOW were they good. The Deli is such a great place to hang out. I prefer to eat outside at one of the patio tables, taking in the quiet pace of downtown Waukesha. Once those delish dishes were history I had my eye on the almond cookies that were hunkered down in the pastry case. I love almond and especially marzipan. If you don’t know what marzipan is go ask your grandmother. A hot cup of tea and a delectable fresh homemade almond cookie—ok it was really good. We chatted with friends until the place closed which was a little early for me 7pm, but hey it’s a deli and they were open all day. So now I can tastefully recommend the Reuben, Devonshire and the Italian Panini at The Rochester Deli.

We have these good friends who have a knack for knowing all the quaint and sometimes quirky places to eat in the Metro Milwaukee area. April 1st proved to be a delightful day, weather wise, so we tripped over to The Rochester Deli in Waukesha off Broadway. I am always on the hunt for a good Reuben and I was not disappointed here. Because it was literally 80 degrees at 6pm, so we decided to sit outside and enjoy the delish food! I finished the Reuben which was accompanied by a great side dish of fresh coleslaw, I meandered back inside to check out the cakes, cookies and various other sweets. I had my eye on this almond cookie that was dipped in chocolate. I love almond and if you do too then this is the best almond cookie I have tasted in a long time. The Rochester Deli advertises itself as the Home of the Best Reuben and I would have to concur. This little gem is right here in our backyard and is my new fav place for Reuben’s!
