Pizza Transformed
For
years it was a diner called Scrambled Ed’s, and before that, a George
Webb. The new occupants, Transfer Pizzeria Cafe (101 W. Mitchell St.),
have restored much of the century-old corner building to its original
appearance, exposing wooden beams, a tile floor and stained glass. It’s
pleasant and spacious, but the main reason for coming is the pizza.
Ukrainian born master chef Vasyl Lembersky (formerly of Fresche Pizza)
whips up an airy crust and piles it with choice ingredients, mostly
organic and locally produced at Springdale Farm in Plymouth. The
variety is enormous and the prices reasonable. Transfer also has a
small selection of antipasti, salads, pasta, sandwiches and desserts,
along with good Sven’s coffee.

The Third Ward has changed a great deal since the Milwaukee Ale House opened its doors 11 years ago. The Ale House was one of the first ventures to renovate a vintage building and take advantage of views of the Milwaukee River. A decade later the “r
Two new storefronts—Little Italy Olive Oil Co. and Capone’s Grotto— recently appeared at 1003 and 1007 N. Old World Third St., in the spot formerly occupied by Jewel of India. The interior received a much-needed makeover that includes be
