All Milwaukee Pizza Hut locations have been temporarily shut down, health department confirms
All six Milwaukee Pizza Hut locations have been shut down for operating without licenses, confirmed the Milwaukee Health Department.
Health officials told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel in an email the department issued closure orders to the chain's locations after learning the restaurants' new owners had not yet received food dealer licenses. The chain's Bay View location closed earlier this year after its owner withdrew the restaurant's renewal application.
Food dealer licenses are legally required for any person or business selling, serving and storing food in Milwaukee, according to the Office of the City Clerk License Division.
Milwaukee's Pizza Hut franchises are now owned by PHZ. Previous owners EYM Pizza "relinquished control several weeks ago," the health department said.
Five of the six restaurants are currently undergoing the application process, according to the city health department. "Once those licenses are approved, the businesses will be eligible to reopen," it said.
The health department said the temporary closures are consistent with its standard procedures. "MHD's role is to ensure that businesses are in compliance with licensing requirements that help protect public health," it said.
Pizza Hut did not immediately respond to the Journal Sentinel's request for comment.
Here are the six Milwaukee Pizza Hut locations, according to its website:
2340 N. Farwell Ave.
1840 S. 15th St.
5704 W. Capitol Drive
3921 S. 76th St.
3555 S. 27th St.

How Liverpool should spend $171M if Florian Wirtz transfer collapses
Liverpool's pursuit of Florian Wirtz seems to be heading in the right direction — but the longer the transfer saga drags on, the twitchier Reds fans will get over whether the German is actually destined for Anfield. Advertisement It's been several weeks now since it emerged that Wirtz had decided that he wanted to join Liverpool over Bayern Munich, and the Merseyside club has been working on wrapping up a deal ever since. Wirtz confirmed his excitement at the prospect of joining Liverpool last week, but given the sums involved — the attacker could become the third most-expensive player of all time — there is a risk of the transfer breaking down until the deal is officially confirmed. READ MORE: Darwin Nunez transfer deadline emerges thanks to Viktor Gyokeres' snub READ MORE: Liverpool transfer news LIVE: Florian Wirtz medical, Milos Kerkez talks, Darwin Nunez future Advertisement If, for whatever reason, the transfer doesn't end up going through, the Reds will have to look elsewhere for alternative targets. Similar players to Wirtz There are few players in world soccer who can hold a candle to Wirtz in his position, and all of them would cost an absolute fortune — but Liverpool is willing to spend an absolute fortune on Wirtz, so the likelihood is that the Reds would also be willing to do exactly that to sign another player of the German's caliber. Of the world's attacking midfielders, only Jude Bellingham — who was previously linked with Liverpool — has a higher market value ($205 million) than Wirtz, according to Transfermarkt, and there is little chance of him leaving Real Madrid this summer. Liverpool is continuing to work on a deal for Florian Wirtz -Credit:2025 Ralf Ibing - firo sportphoto Bayern's Jamal Musiala and Wirtz are both valued at $160 million, and while a move for Musiala is also unlikely, the prospect of him moving on could increase if Wirtz ends up joining Bayern. Advertisement Cole Palmer and Martin Odegaard are among the best attacking midfielders in the Premier League but there is no chance Liverpool would be able to convince either Chelsea or Arsenal to part with either player. Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers and Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze could be more attainable, while RB Leipzig's Xavi Simons has been linked with Liverpool in the past and the Reds could turn their attention to him.

Advertisement Liverpool has already signed a new right-sided player in Jeremie Frimpong, but a left-back — specifically Milos Kerkez — is also on the agenda. The Reds could also look to strengthen in the center of Arne Slot's defense amid the uncertainty over the futures of Ibrahima Konate, Joe Gomez and Jarell Quansah.

American Airlines Is Giving Onboard Service a Major Upgrade
American Airlines Is Giving Onboard Service a Major Upgrade originally appeared on Parade. Attention all traveling foodies: American Airlines is rolling out a deliciously major upgrade. The airline is celebrating some of its popular summer travel destinations with a new European-inspired in-flight dining menu beginning June 11 for customers flying in Flagship Business, a Flagship Suite Preferred seat, or a Flagship Suite seat on select European routes. Routes that will feature the menu include Paris (CDG) and Nice (NCE), France; Rome (FCO), Venice (VCE), Naples (NAP), and Milan (MXP), Italy; Barcelona (BCN) and Madrid (MAD), Spain; Frankfurt (FRA) and Munich (MUC), Germany; London (LHR) and Edinburgh (EDI), United Kingdom; and Dublin (DUB), Ireland. The menu items inspired by France are ratatouille and a porcini short rib paired with polenta and blue cheese, while the Italian-inspired menu features an herbed short rib with pea risotto and pan-seared halibut with fingerling potatoes. Would it be a German menu without schnitzel and spaetzle? American Airlines isn't taking that risk, adding both to the menu with potatoes and blistered tomatoes accompanying the schnitzel, and grilled zucchini, cremini mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes joining the spaetzle. The theme continues with the Spain-inspired menu items, going coastal with a mar y mar paella and a seared sea bass served with squid ink rice, while the U.K. is represented with mustard-crumb lamb served with turnips, peas and baby carrots, and a peppercorn short rib with roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables. That's not the only change being implemented, as the airline is now giving customers more time to make their pre-order selections by adjusting the pre-order meal window to 20 hours before departure, giving them four additional hours than they currently have to select their in-flight meal.

Germany's SEFE to enter 10-year gas deal with Azerbaijan's Socar
-- State-owned German trading company, SEFE, is set to announce a 10-year agreement to purchase gas from Socar, the state-owned company in Azerbaijan, according to a Bloomberg report on Monday. This agreement allows SEFE to procure up to 15 terawatt-hours of gas annually, equivalent to approximately 1.5 billion cubic meters per year. The report indicated that the gas is expected to be transported to Europe via the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP). This pipeline traverses Northern Greece, Albania, and the Adriatic Sea before reaching the southern shores of Italy. SEFE, an acronym for Securing Energy for Europe, has been proactive in securing new supply contracts. The region has become more reliant on global supplies since the majority of its Russian pipeline gas was lost in 2022. Despite Norwegian production operating at nearly full capacity, Europe continues to require additional supplies while it awaits the commencement of more liquefied natural gas export facilities in the US.
