Blue Ribbon Awards: Coffee or Tea?
Courtny Gerrish
MILWAUKEE - Two places known for their hot beverages also have food and clean dining on the menu.
Brew City Tea on Jefferson in the Third Ward. This quaint and cozy tea house is the perfect place to have a cup, and order something to eat. Full disclosure here. We met the owner and discovered she's related to TMJ4's Vince Vitrano.
Jean Vitrano and Brew City Tea get this month's first Blue Ribbon Award.
Downtown Milwaukee now. Mocha on Wisconsin Avenue is doing good business, and it's not just about the coffee. Owner John Vassallo says "Yes, absolutely. A nice lunch crowd and we get a lot of students here."
Sandwiches, salads and desserts to go with that coffee. Mocha had a clean health inspection and gets our second Blue Ribbon Award.
