Fiddleheads or Starbucks?

September 17, 2013 By Brian Mohsenian Leave a Comment

Logos of Fiddleheads and Starbuck on a background of coffee beansIt’s no news to residents of Mequon and Thiensville that two of the most popular coffee shops in town are Starbucks and Fiddleheads. These two local favorites are huge competitors and if you’re like most folks, you’ve probably developed a strong loyalty to one or the other.

Well, I am here to tell you that you don’t have to choose a side, and that both cafes are great places to go; you just need to understand their differences and what each offers.

Fiddleheads

You may be surprised to know that since 1996, Fiddleheads has been a family-owned and operated wholesale and retail coffee business.

And where are three of Fiddlehead’s four cafés located? Right here in Mequon and Thiensville!

Fiddleheads actually started out with the café in Thiensville, located in a historic 1830’s cobbler’s cottage on the Milwaukee River just off Main Street. They have since expanded to three more locations — another store in Thiensville, one in Mequon off of Port Washington Road, as well as one in Cedarburg.

The name, Fiddleheads, actually refers to a fern’s young, unfurling fronds, and the company uses it’s significance and imagery to represent the growth of their business. And clearly, their business has been doing just that.

With multiple coffee cafés, Fiddleheads attracts a lot of business. Although you can easily get coffee to go, Fiddlehead’s is known as a relax-and-sit-down place. Because the environment is so cozy and inviting, people tend to want to stay to enjoy their coffee.

You can also order tasty food at Fiddleheads cafés. They serve delicious soups and sandwiches, widely craved artisan breads and pastries, and, of course, their fresh coffee.

The two Fiddleheads in Thiensville have hours of 6:30 a.m to 2:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m to 5:00 p.m. The one in Mequon is open until 8:00 p.m.

Starbucks

The original Mequon Starbucks was first located across from Mequon Pavilion on Port Washington Road. But, a lightning strike in June 2010 caused that location to burn down, so, the current Starbucks relocated a half-mile north in a commercial strip at 11301 North Port Washington Road.

As an international business, Starbucks is, obviously, a much bigger company than Fiddlehead’s. Although physically smaller in size than most of the Fiddlehead’s cafes, Starbucks makes up for it with speed and convenience. Unlike Fiddleheads, Starbucks is known to serve at a faster pace and customers are usually in-and-out of the café quickly.

Another key difference is Starbuck’s drive-thru, which winds around the back of the building. This is a highly convenient feature, especially during those December snowstorms when getting out of your car for a cuppa Joe is less than appealing. Drive by on any weekday morning and the drive-thru always seems to be full of traffic. Plus, don’t forget, it’s less than a quarter mile to the on-ramp for I43.

Along with its convenience, Starbucks also serves up many different kinds of coffee drinks, both hot and cold. They offer up more variations than Fiddleheads, which is to be expected. They have 26 different flavor varieties of their icy Frappuccino’s alone, which are so sweet and perfect to enjoy during the summer. Add in macchiatos, espressos, cappuccinos, lattes and Americanos, and you have the works!

So, regardless of your loyalty, remember to consider each of these local favorites for what they offer. Fiddlehead’s for it’s old-world family-owned charm, cozy relaxing environment and delicious soups, sandwiches, artisan breads and pastries. And, Starbucks, for its quick, efficient service, convenient access and wide-variety of corporate tested coffees, flavors and treats.

Review: Despicable Me 2

July 31, 2013 By Brian Mohsenian Leave a Comment

Crew standing with his arms crossed and many Minions in the backgroundBest family movie and funniest animated film of the summer!

Those cute little yellow guys are everywhere, and make Despicable Me 2 such a fun film for all ages! The rambunctious and unpredictable Minions, along with their evil master Crew and the children he has adopted, make for a funny and heartwarming film.

Doing extremely well at its release, the Universal animated sequel took in $82.5 million during opening weekend. It completely trounced Disney’s The Lone Ranger. While perhaps a surprise at the box office, it will be no surprise when this film becomes a favorite of this hot vacation season.

Although full of all the characters we grew to love from the first film, Despicable Me 2 is nothing like its predecessor. The first film introduced us to Crew and his plans for becoming the evil mastermind, one-upping another evil villain known as Vector. The first film ended in a warm and happy way that showed Crew’s good side. What started out as an nasty trick to infiltrate his enemy’s lair, turned out to be best decision Crew ever made as he finally accepted his growing love for his newly adopted children.

The storyline from the original Despicable Me made for a nice transition to this next film. In Despicable Me 2, the same caring but still evil Crew is now retired from the wicked mastermind business, and is trying to become more of a family man. Unexpectedly, however, a mysterious woman captures Crew for surprising reasons, and swiftly pulls him right back into the center of all the action.

With well-known actors, such as Steve Carrell, Kristen Wiig, Miranda Cosgrove and Russell Brand playing the voices for these lovable characters, this movie is a hit. It’s an adventure full of love, secret agents, salsa, jam and both crazy purple and yellow Minions. Despicable Me 2 will leave you happily-surprised that a sequel could be as good, if not better, than it’s predecessor.

The Best Way to Cool Off This Summer: The Mequon Pool

July 18, 2013 By Brian Mohsenian Leave a Comment

Mequon pool with lifeguard on tower watching swimmersGrab your swimsuit and goggles. The Mequon Community Pool is open and in full swing for the summer!

It’s not as fancy as the newly renovated River Club Pool. Nor does it have the water spouts and slippery slides like the pool in Cedarburg. But, what our Mequon Community Pool does have is convenience, low cost and social cache. It is THE place to meet your school friends and reconnect during those hot and humid summer days.

Not One but Two Pools

The Mequon Pool is actually two pools. The large main pool includes a shallow and deep end, two diving boards the kids can’t seem to stay off of, and a swimmer’s lane for those who want a healthy cardio workout.

In a separate enclosure, just feet away from the main pool, there’s a zero-depth kidd pool that accommodates parents and their toddler swimmers.

Top-Notch Lifeguards

With a kind and personal staff, the Mequon Community pool does a great job providing a safe and carefree environment. There are usually four trained lifeguards on duty at a time, with one dedicated to working the kiddy pool. Rules are strictly enforced. No running, no flotation devices and no leaping from the diving boards until the swimmer in front of you has cleared the area.

On hot summer days, the pool is flooded with kids. But don’t worry . . . there’s always Adult Swim. During certain times of the day, lifeguards will clear the pool of anyone under 18 and adults can cool off for a bit without having to worry about the little ones.

The Dive for Snacks

After taking a dip, stop by The Dive, a mobile snack bar just outside the pool entrance. They offer tasty grub and icy drinks, but most people come for the 24 flavors of ice cream. In a dish or on a cone, nothing beats a cold creamy frozen dessert after a hot day at the pool. Choose your favorite treat (mine’s an ice cold root beer float) and relax at the picnic tables just outside the pool.

Reasonable Prices

The prices for the pool are really quite reasonable. For Mequon residents ages 3-12 it’s $3.50 daily, and for ages 13 and above, it’s $4.50. Thiensville residents pay a bit more. Anyone under the age of 3 is free.

The real money saver for Mequon families is the $100 Family Pass which covers all family members to age 18. Thiensville families pay $135.

The hot and humid days of the season are here for a while, so stay cool and enjoy all that the Mequon Community Pool has to offer! Open seven days a week, 12:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. from June to late August, when most of the college-aged lifeguards head back to school.

Mequon’s Jonathan Clark House: Take a Step Back to 1848

July 9, 2013 By Brian Mohsenian 4 Comments

View of Jonathan Clark House front facade with fieldstone and limestone wallEver drive by the corner of Bonniwell and Cedarburg Roads and see the old grey fieldstone house up on the hill? Ever wonder about its history, who lived there and just how long the house has been standing there?

This historic Mequon landmark is the 165 year-old Jonathan Clark House and it’s an important piece of our community’s history. And, thanks to a group of local supporters, the house will soon be a fully functioning museum.

Although restoration and preservation efforts are still underway, the Friends of Jonathan Clark House Ltd are offering preview tours. Their goals? To raise interest in Mequon’s historical past and to raise funds to complete the Jonathan Clark House restoration.

Dr. Nina Jo Look, Museum Director

I was fortunate enough to get a personal tour of the house by Nina Jo Look, Ph.D., volunteer Museum Director and longtime Mequon resident. Dr. Look is very invested in the house and her enthusiasm about its history shows. She loves to give tours, explaining in great detail about the life and times of those who lived there. She has big plans to fill the Clark House with period furniture, rugs, lighting and accessories; she wants to make the house a special place in our community.

A Look Back

Jumping back in time, the house was built in 1848 by early Mequon settler Jonathan Clark and his family. Clark was a Yankee and an inventor of sorts, who made many contributions to the community. He was one of Mequon’s first Supervisors and was instrumental in founding Mequon’s first public school.

Through the years, the Jonathan Clark House has been home to a number of families and most recently it was the site of Dr. Gregory Custer’s dental practice. In 2012, Jerry McGinnis, retired founder of Embassy Homes of Mequon, purchased the Jonathan Clark House for $250,000 and then offered an interest free loan to Friends of Jonathan Clark House Ltd so they could buy it.

Greek Revival Architecture

Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, the house itself is an exceptional example of Greek revival architecture which features a symmetrical, formal shape. The boxlike appearance of the house definitely adds to its charm. The sidewalls of the house are made from coursed fieldstone, and the front of the house is a combination of limestone and fieldstone. Clark would use this unique entrance to impress important business clients, ushering them through the front door to his office on the right. The house, made from Mequon’s raw materials, truly represents the very beginnings of Mequon, and the pioneering spirit of the growing community.

Community Spirit Continues

Groups from all around our community have been pitching in to help make the Jonathan Clark House a success. Milwaukee Area Technical College’s (MATC Mequon) Landscape Design Program students are involved in plans for the gardens and landscape. University of Wisconsin Milwaukee (UWM) students of Archeology and Museum Studies are assisting as well. The Friends of Jonathan Clark House Ltd have also requested help from Concordia University, offering a student internship for help formulating a business plan for the museum. And last but not least, Dr. Look has been talking with Mequon-Thiensville’s Superintendent Dr. Means, about ways to get Homestead High School students involved too.

Open House Coming Soon

If you haven’t had a tour yet, the Jonathan Clark House Museum is having their open house on Wednesday, July 17, 2013. Come meet Dr. Look, hear the story of the house for yourself and check out the progress. With a fascinating history, and with so much to learn, I can personally tell you it’s not something you want to miss! The open house is from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Can’t Make the Open House?

Set up a time to visit the museum, as Dr. Look welcomes new ideas on how this museum can benefit our community. Take a step back into the past and come experience Mequon’s only house museum!

Superman Brings New Hope

June 29, 2013 By Brian Mohsenian Leave a Comment

Close up of Superman in Man of Steel with cape flowingBringing another great hero story from DC Comics to life, Man of Steel flew into Mequon’s Marcus North Shore Cinema on June 14th.

It raked in a massive $116.6 million, making it the highest weekend gross for the month of June.

Besides The Dark Knight Trilogy and the 2011 Green Lantern film, Superman is only the third DC comic to get a movie reboot, and it did an amazing job at re-introducing the character to a new generation of viewers.  It did so in a new way for Superman; it was dark, more dramatic, and had a much more intense ambience.

In this sense, Man of Steel was very similar to the prominent Dark Knight Trilogy, also produced by Christopher Nolan. I personally have a deep appreciation and admiration for Nolan’s work and I am hoping that he will have a hand in all the DC Comic films yet to come.

Starting out as an origin film, Man of Steel really focuses on Cal El’s (aka Superman’s) childhood, revealing how and why he came to Earth from Krypton, his home planet.  For me, the beginning of the film was so powerful and inspiring. We witness the struggle Cal goes through, growing up as Clark Kent trying to fit in as a human when he is obviously not of this world.  He wants to be normal, wants to fit in, yet he needs to accept who he is and what he was sent to Earth to do.

As Superman is just beginning to understand his world and his place in it, one of his greatest enemies starts to tear it all down around him. General Zod, another Kryptonian almost as powerful as Superman, arrives to retrieve something he believes was taken from him when Cal left Krypton.  General Zod desires to make a new Krypton out of Earth and in the process, destroy all humans. Superman has a choice to make — between the world he knows and the world he comes from. The hero in him must emerge if he is to save this world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind.

Henry Cavill, an upcoming actor and soon to be big star, does an incredible job playing the humble but courageous Superman.  A little known actor as of yet, this role is sure to take Cavill’s career to a new level.

The adept Russell Crowe plays the wise Jor-El, Superman’s father, and Michael Shannon is the sadistic, evil General Zod.  The beautiful Amy Adams as the iconic love of Superman, Lois Lane, makes for some very emotional scenes between the two in the midst of all the action.

Zack Snyder, the film’s director, was clearly trying hard to not do the regular, cliché Superman story. Still, the film had some original Superman characteristics to it, adding to its success.  Snyder brought Superman down a notch, and really made him seem human and more vulnerable than other films’ depictions of the hero.

Some critics have problems with some of the transitional scenes between the exhilarating action and spectacle that it provides.  And although I do understand their commentary, I will say this: Man of Steel blew the most recent reboot, the 2006 Superman Returns, out of the water! Hands down, Man of Steel is the best Superman film yet. It’s inspirational, dramatic and intense. It really sets the bar high for future Superman films.

Outpost Natural Foods Coming in 2014

June 27, 2013 By Brian Mohsenian Leave a Comment

outpostTake note – there is something new coming to Mequon!

A new Outpost Natural Foods supermarket is already under construction, on the northeast corner of Mequon and Wauwatosa Roads in Mequon.

As the fourth Outpost Natural Foods store, and the very first in Ozaukee County, this 16,000-square-foot space will provide yet another option for health-conscious Mequon shoppers.

Commitment to Healthy

What makes Outpost Natural Foods different from the other supermarkets Mequonites currently frequent? It’s their whole-hearted commitment to “food grown the way it used to be”. That means a commitment to:

  • Organic — Outpost supports organic farming practices and food grown without the use of synthetic chemical pesticides, herbicides and fungicides.
  • Local — Outpost purchases locally grown and produced food items whenever possible. Buying local keeps more dollars in the community.
  • Fair Trade — Whenever possible, Outpost offers Fair Trade certified products because Fair Trade products ultimately help some of the poorest people in the world develop a livelihood that will sustain themselves.
  • GMO-Free — Foods grown containing genetically modified organisms (GMO) compromise the health and safety of the food supply in general. As part of their commitment to organic, Outpost Natural will offer GMO-Free products.

Financing

To get the Outpost Natural Foods store kickstarted, the Mequon Common Council approved a proposal to provide $229,241 in assistance for the $4.1 million development. The money will be provided through the city’s tax incremental financing district along Mequon Road between Wauwatosa Road and the Milwaukee River. A part of Outpost’s annual property tax will be rebated to the company over a four year period.

Learn More

If you’re eager to learn more about Outpost Natural Foods, you can visit one of their other three stores in the greater Milwaukee area. They are at 100 E. Capitol Drive, Milwaukee; 7000 W. State St., Wauwatosa; and 2826 S. Kinnickinnic Ave., in Milwaukee’s Bay View neighborhood.

In the meantime, if you want to follow the construction progress at the Mequon location, Outpost is providing updates on their website.

Can’t wait for the Mequon Natural Outpost to be here? It will be here before you know it; it’s scheduled to open by summer 2014.

Review: Star Trek Into Darkness

June 24, 2013 By Brian Mohsenian Leave a Comment

Star Trek Into Darkness movie banner

“Space; the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. It’s continuing mission – to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no man has gone before.”
~ Captain Kirk, Starship Enterprise

And this film definitely goes, in epic proportions, to where no Star Trek film has gone before!

For original Star Trek fans, such as myself, this film was a spectacle of the series, something to truly enjoy and relate to. I was overwhelmed with the film from start to finish. There were many connections to past subjects of the original series such as humorous references to classic creatures. Leonard Nimoy, from the original series, made yet another appearance as Spock. It’s nostalgic and poetic to have him in these new films.

As the plot unfolds, those of us Star Trek geeks realize the movie takes place before the original series begins. We are introduced to Captain Kirk, his crew and a villain known as Khan. None of the Star Trek fleet know about Khan, or his crew, and do not know what to expect. Kahn may not be what he seems, and may just turn out to be the critical factor in the fate of the Enterprise . . . you will have to see the film and find out for yourself.

If you have not seen the original series nor any of the Star Trek films from the 80’s, you’ll be especially surprised with the many sharp twists and turns in this exciting film’s plot. It will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire night.

Although violent, Star Trek: Into Darkness is a movie for all ages, sure to entertain the young and the old. Full of action, suspense and humor, this science fiction gem can appeal to just about any demographic and be exciting for any viewer — especially if seen in 3D. You’ll feel as if you’re right there on the Enterprise going at warp speeds, in the midst of battle, dodging phaser beams and fighting for Starfleet Command with Kirk and his crew.

I recommend the film for everyone to see. It’s an adventure you do not want to miss out on!

View of Cherry Berry Topping Bar in Mequon, WIIt’s one of those unbearably humid summer days and you’re looking for a chilled treat to soothe your parched throat . . .

Well have no doubt, Mequon has several places you can go to get instant and delicious relief with some exquisite frozen desserts!

Cherry Berry

Since it’s fairly new, you may not have heard about this frozen self-serve yogurt bar yet. Flamboyant and vibrantly colorful from the get-go, Cherry Berry offers over 50 premium healthy and fat-free frozen yogurt flavors, such as Honey Vanilla Greek, Key Lime Bar and Tartastic. And there’s over 50 toppings at the topping bar, from granola, cereals and fresh fruits, to all kinds of candies and sprinkles. Fill your cup with any combination, top it, weigh it and enjoy. You pay for it by the ounce. With bright colors all around, and fun creative seating, the kids will have a blast making their desserts and eating them too! And since it’s frozen yogurt, it’s a healthier option when it comes to chilled treats.

Culver’s

A long-time favorite in Mequon, known for their tender butter burgers and crunchy crinkle-cut French fries, this restaurant at the corner of Mequon and Port Washington Roads also serves up famously delicious custard. Every day, Culver’s features a unique flavor of their fresh frozen custard—and it’s always different from one location to the next. Caramel Cashew, Mint Chip and Red Raspberry are some of the favorites. Culver’s custard is made fresh throughout the day, always with the finest ingredients. They offer many different flavors and toppings, served either on top or as a Concrete Mixers, candy mashed into the custard so it has a creamy, delicious smooth texture. And if you want some custard to go, Culver’s does larger containers and pints big enough to share with rest of the family or a group of friends.

Dairy Queen

As a more classic ice cream restaurant at Mequon Pavilion, off Port Washington Road, Dairy Queen (DQ) offers most everything and anything that you could be looking for in a tasty, frozen treat. Along with some spicy burger selections and other good grub, when it comes to ice cream, DQ is known for its icy cold Blizzards made from different types of candy, cookies, fruit and chocolates. My favorite? Without a doubt, the Butterfinger Blizzard!

In addition to Blizzards, DQ serves up sundaes, waffle and cone treats dipped in chocolate, as well as the classic Dilly bar. For those special celebrations, they make their one-of-a-kind ice cream cakes that are sure to cool off any party in the summer!
