Amid the <a href="https://radiomilwaukee.org/food-drink/2025-12-03/beans-and-barley-milwaukee-closing">recent sad news about one East Side institution</a>, we’re starting this episode on a much happier note from right up the street, as Von Trier continues its steady pace on the corner of Farwell and North avenues.As Ann pointed out in her <a href="https://www.milwaukeemag.com/von-triers-rebirth-a-thanksgiving-feast-at-henrys-and-more-dining-tidbits/">Milwaukee Magazine tidbit</a>, we didn’t have much to worry about when the nearly 50-year-old establishment changed hands earlier this year — primarily because those hands belonged to the city’s unofficial preserver of cocktail lounges, John Dye. The man has a demonstrated respect for history, and Von Trier’s first few months under his watch reflect that approach.You can get Ann’s full report (plus a healthy amount of sausage conversation) in the full podcast, which also sees us chatting about:<ul>
