Dan Dillabough spent 14 years cooking on freighter ships on the Great Lakes, so when he opened his restaurant in the Cedar Creek Mall, he wanted it to reflect that experience.
Dillabough decorated The Galley Cafe, which opened Sept. 17, with charts of oceans and lakes and photographs he took while working on the ships.
The menu, however, is all land-based, with a selection of gourmet hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken sandwiches. Although many of the items are your typical sandwiches, some, such as the Hawaiian burger with grilled pineapple, are more exotic.
“Everybody loves burgers,” Dillabough said. “I wanted to offer a lot of different varieties and combinations you don’t see everywhere.”
The Galley Cafe is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturdays. Call 262-298-3118 for take-out orders or delivery.
