Culver's

If you aren't from the Midwest, you may never have heard of Culver's... It's a fast-casual restaurant chain that started in WI. They are famous for their butter burgers and frozen custard. Frozen custard is a staple in WI--kind of like ice cream but so much creamier! There are lots of places that serve frozen custard, so you don't have to go to Culver's but you should try some somewhere! Ask a local when you're at our wedding where their favorite frozen custard place is :)
