There's a little place in Milwaukee called Gilles. It's one of those roadside stands that serve as community heirlooms, selling hamburgers and slushies on hot days. Places like Gilles invariably appear under soft focus in coming-of-age movies, the setting for a million summer jobs.
One of those kids was Rose Namajunas. And she has a menu recommendation.
"You have to get frozen custard," she said. "It's better than ice cream. I'm serious."
Gilles is still in Milwaukee. Namajunas isn't. On Saturday she'll be in Rio de Janeiro, where she will defend her UFC women's strawweight belt against hometown and betting favorite Jessica Andrade in the main event of UFC 237.
