MILWAUKEE; October 9, 2018 – America’s most-watched cooking show on public television is bringing the flavor to Milwaukee. Julia Collin Davison and Bridget Lancaster, co-hosts of America’s Test Kitchen and Cook’s Country, are coming to Milwaukee on Thursday, October 18. Fans will have two opportunities to interact with Davison and Lancaster – a formal luncheon at Milwaukee Area Technical College (MATC) and a public meet-and-greet event at the Milwaukee Public Market.
