It's time for Dining Month, presented by Deer District and its spooky Halloween-themed alter ego, Fear District. Throughout the month of October, we'll be serving up fun and fascinating content about all things food. The signature dish, however, is our 2019 Best of Dining poll, with winners getting dished out all month long. Get hungry, Milwaukee!

Blue's Egg

Blue's Egg, an American breakfast and lunch restaurant with food inspired from around the world, offers brunch every day from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. 

Try all the favorite brunch items at Blue's, such as classics like buttermilk pancakes or French toast or twists to familiar favorites with the blueberry pancakes or the berry-smothered French toast. Order the polenta or variations of egg benedicts – including the Florentine, which comes with fresh spinach, beef-steak tomatoes, an english muffin and hollandaise, or the Dubliner, which comes with corned beef, creamy leeks, rye toast and paprika aioli. Be delighted with monkey bread and more. 

Pro tip: Get there with some time to spare because there's always a crowd. But the wait is always worth it.
