Weekend Happenings in Downtown Waukesha

Some of you may not venture down to the far West End (of Main Street) as much as other parts of downtown but if you don’t you are missing out, especially this weekend. That that area is starting to see even more reinvestment from recent projects like the Maple & Main building, which houses Katydids and two incredible (and available) condos that I was able to finally see last weekend, to the recent expansion of Magellan’s (M2) which is serving pizza some are calling some of the best in Waukesha.  Well you can add two more businesses at the West End to the mix.
First up is the Waukesha Tattoo Company @ Galleria Edge also check out their blog at http://koolfooltattoo.blogspot.com/) located at 463 West Main Street, who will hold its grand opening and ribbon cutting on Saturday May 22.  The place will open at 10 with the ribbon cutting at 10:30.  The open house is from 10am to 5pm and the opening reception, featuring the Katie & Andy Show, an art exhibit opening featuring local artists Katie Musloff and Andy Fletcher. The show will run from 5-22 to 6-26.  The Waukesha Tattoo Company @ Galleria Edge had the incredible Flux Design do their interior, which I think is a first for Waukesha. Crazy Train beef and dogs will also be out in the parking lot all day.  The serve up some Chicago-style dogs, gut-busting beef sandwiches slathered in Nacho Cheese and some awesome fried pickle wedges.
Next up is the Moxie Beauty Lounge which is a salon and spa also located at the West End of Main Street. They will also be having a grand opening on Saturday from 12pm to 8pm. They’ll be having food, drinks, and specials on services and products with a cook-out from 5pm-8pm.
Also its Week 3 of the great Waukesha Farmers’ Market!
The weather will be great so get out and enjoy downtown Waukesha this weekend.

Food Fun & Life recaps a week of Waukesha dining.

Sara over at the awesome blog “Food, Fun and Life in Waukesharecaps a week of  eating in Waukesha with mini-reviews of Spirzzo, M2 (Magellan’s), Generations, and El Ranchito. 

Her blog is a great chronicle of her enjoyment of all things Waukesha.  Maybe we can coax her into posting here too.

Speaking of Waukesha Bloggers, the somewhat strange, yet always interesting, Sewer Racoon News also paid a visit to the Farmers’ Market last weekend.
