Where To Find Great Supper Clubs

By Ruth Walker


There is a type of restaurant that has interesting beginnings during and after the Prohibition Era. At first, they were establishments that operated on the fly in out of the way places, where the FBI and other federal agencies could not easily catch traveling gangsters. Folks simply accepted them because they paid good hard cash, asked no questions and seldom bothered anyone there.

Plus, the gangs also provided the best liquor during a time when places all over the country were desert dry. Wisconsin supper clubs had their start like this, but it took no time for the innkeepers to become legitimate destinations for people to go to when prohibition was over. These were good places with a history and so became famous.

In this day and time, the club of this type is where fine folks can go to and rub elbows with others when dining and drinking. Standards here are for fine dining, and any other kind of new innovation in food preparation, restaurant etiquette and technology. Supper clubs are among the most progressive of dining places.

Wisconsin state did have a lot of backcountry roads back then. Some little towns were found on these roads, where farming families decided to live together and have a main street. Taking a break from fighting the law, gangs took breaks in these places, away from central locations where the FBI had offices, places with many escape routes.

The main street salon and restaurant, such as it was in these places, came to take them in with some caution. However, these boys were out for a break, some good food to eat and a drink without toting their tommy guns. Eventually, the innkeepers started dusting off their family recipes to give them something special to remember, even as they brought in quality food items and bonded liquor.

Supper clubs are progressive, and have a great spirit of warmth and camaraderie and quiet, with good food and drinks. Their keep in character so that they are often found outside city boundaries, where highways are quiet and air more rural. However, the highways themselves are the best access that connects them to cities.

The state therefore has its own excellent version of out of the way clubs with an aura. These are not exclusive, but operate more like starred places on the Michelin book on the suburbs of Paris. They are actually very legit, and have nothing of the spirit left from those times when gangsters where their main source of income.

These are places that have a past and it often shows on walls. Photos or mementos are interesting, even as those hard times are not in evidence for actual service. The atmosphere is the opposite of furtive joy, but about good times done quietly and with warmth and excellent service.

The cooking is classic American or Midwestern, with big steaks and complete sides. However, the merchandise has expanded to a great extent. These places will become a favorites for anyone after that first time visit, and thus continues a grand tradition of quiet hospitality that even the most hardbitten gangsters appreciated.
