’Tis Dining Month, the tastiest time of year! This means we’re dishing up fun and fascinating food content throughout October. Dig in, Milwaukee! OnMilwaukee Dining Month is served up by Potawatomi Hotel & Casino and Wollersheim Winery & Distillery.
After 21 years with the Bartolotta Restaurant Group, James Beard Award-winning Chef Adam Siegel has launched his very first solo project, Lupi & Iris.
Just five months in, we’re catching up with Siegel to chat about his storied career, how it led him to Milwaukee and the experiences that led to the creation of the new restaurant. Along the way he shares stories of his early career, education, training with Paul Bartolotta, his travels in Europe and the dishes that inspire him.

Lori is an avid cook whose accrual of condiments and spices is rivaled only by her cookbook collection. Her passion for the culinary industry was birthed while balancing A&W root beer mugs as a teenage carhop, fed by insatiable curiosity and fueled by the people whose stories entwine with each and every dish. She’s had the privilege of chronicling these tales via numerous media, including OnMilwaukee and in her book “Milwaukee Food.” Her work has garnered journalism awards from entities including the Milwaukee Press Club.
When she’s not eating, photographing food, writing or recording the FoodCrush podcast, you’ll find Lori seeking out adventures with her husband Paul, traveling, cooking, reading, learning, snuggling with her cats and looking for ways to make a difference.
