Corky's Pizza
25 S Walnut St, La Crescent, MN 55947
This is a family-owned pizza and burger joint in La Crescent's heart. Carson recommends their chicken salad sandwiches as he first fell in love with them on the job for the first time. Brandy and Carson both recommend any pizza here as it is stone oven-baked and like no other you've tried.
Ciatti's Italian Grill
2846 Midwest Dr, Onalaska, WI 54650
Brandy and Carson suggest trying the Italian nachos, a large appetizer that can serve three people. This dish is a favorite for anniversaries, celebrations, or just a pick-me-up. It's also a great place to enjoy a Moscow Mule and Tiramisu.

The recommended options are the beer-battered fish dinners and the Cajun shrimp, which are only sold on Fridays. Please note that Friday is exclusively Takeout Fish Friday. Kaddy's is also a choice place for breakfast.
