Jodi Lurie, the owner of the new wallpaper boutique Talking Walls, shares her 8 favorite MKE spots.

 

1) Empower Yoga — If I start my day with a power flow at Empower Yoga, I know it is going to be a good day. I attend the Whitefish Bay location, but they also have locations in the Historic Third Ward and in Wauwatosa.

 

2) Elsa’s on the Park — Dirty Martini, enough said.

 

3) Babe’s Ice Cream — Finding good vegan ice cream is not easy, but Babe’s has it mastered.

 

4) Il Cervo — Sitting on the patio during the summertime, with a view of the city can’t be beat.

 

5) Rice N Roll Bistro — Love their sushi and their easy East Side vibe. The East Town Monster roll is my go-to. Their sister restaurant, Kin, in Wauwatosa is just as good!

 

6) La Terre — The most beautiful and unique floral arrangements I have ever seen.

 

7) Kettle Range Meat Company — The best spot for homemade bone broth.

 

8) Colectivo — Their matcha latte is perfect, and so is their gazpacho, which they have in the summertime.
