What is your favorite restaurant in Milwaukee?

My favorite restaurant in Milwaukee is Oscar’s Pub & Grill. I’ve been going there for three or four years now, and I love seeing all of the familiar faces of the workers when I walk in. It basically served as a second home for me during my time at Marquette. You can’t go wrong with their Big Gringo burger, wings, or mystery beers.

What is your favorite memory from your time as a Marquette student?

My favorite memory during my time as a student at Marquette was our win against Xavier when O-Max had a putback tip-in with a second left on the clock. That win itself would’ve made it my favorite memory at Marquette, and then the following day of classes got called off after the game due to snow. It was truly a night I’ll never forget.

How do you like your cheese?

Being in Wisconsin, I feel like it’d be a crime to say I don’t like my cheese deep fried, breaded, and in curd form. So, I’m going with that.
