Is there a meal in Madison you used to get all the time, but that now you can only dream of because the restaurant closed? Maybe it’s a burrito filled with tater tots from Burrito Drive or a sandwich from Radical Rye. The City Cast Madison team pays tribute to our beloved and departed former haunts. Plus, we hear from you about the spots that used to rule Madison’s food and drink scene.
