EAST DUBUQUE, Ill. — The lights behind Timmerman’s Supper Club’s iconic sign will stay on for the foreseeable future, but under new caretakers, after new owners took over the long-standing East Dubuque establishment Monday.
Timmerman’s, opened in 1961, is now under the fifth set of owners in its long history. Mark Hayes and Gary Neuses — who had owned the storied supper club since 2002 — “passed the baton” to new co-owners Patti and Riley Schuetz, and Byrd Salazar at a party Monday night. Surrounded by longtime regulars and accompanied by a swing band, the event seemed to drift the revelers back in time, to Timmerman’s early days. |

Radishes can do a whole lot more than garnish a vegetable plate or cheese board. Crisp and peppery, radishes are a refreshing taste of spring and they make a crunchy addition to salads, slaws and sandwiches.
Local farm-fresh radishes are in our farmers markets and co-ops now — bright red, purple, white and those pretty pink-tipped French varieties. They brighten our winter-weary palates with peppery snap, and this nutrient-dense cruciferous vegetable is loaded with vitamins C, K and B6, plus calcium, potassium, magnesium and antioxidants. |

Fresh ideas for dinner can spring from so many places: The pages of a new cookbook or food magazine, a funny TikTok or instructional video on Instagram or (among my favorite sources for inspiration) websites like Food 52, Serious Eats or Smitten Kitchen.
It also can depend on what you happen to stumble upon while grocery shopping.
This week’s recipe hinges on what I was thrilled to find on sale in my local produce section: Big bunches of spring asparagus priced at just $1.99 per pound. |
