You can enjoy a little bit of Door and Kewaunee counties as a part of the NFL Draft celebration of Wisconsin’s supper club culture next month. The inaugural Taste of the Draft will occur at Green Bay’s Schreiber Foods headquarters on April 23rd to kick off a nearly weeklong celebration for the NFL Draft. Per Green Bay Packers President Mark Murphy’s request, the event will spotlight Wisconsin’s supper clubs, a staple of Wisconsin’s dining experience. Twenty supper clubs, including Sturgeon Bay’s Nightingale Supper Club and Kewaunee’s The Wildflower Supper Club, were selected to place items on the menu. Showcasing their slow-roasted prime rib with horsey sauce, Nightengale owner John Heikkila says it is an opportunity of a lifetime to be included in the event and feature one of its menu’s specialties.
In addition to Nightingale’s prime rib and Wildflower’s tuna steak, other supper club staples such as steaks, pork chops, scotch eggs, liver pate, kraut balls, and relish trays will also be on the menu. The $800-per-ticket event is expected to raise thousands of dollars for GENYOUth to help provide nutritious school meals for Wisconsin students.
