Food Review – The KFC Double Down Chicken Sandwich

Posted: April 12, 2010 at 1:53 pm / Local, Restaurant Reviews

From the moment I heard about it, I was intrigued. Who wouldn’t be? KFC, the master of coronary delights, apparently decided deep fried food was way too healthy and thought, “How can we make our food kill people even more quickly?” Presenting, the Double Down. What is it, exactly? Imagine a sandwich with no bun. […]

Restaurant Review – Pi Pizzeria

Posted: April 2, 2010 at 12:28 pm / Local, Restaurant Reviews

When the moon hits your eye like a big-a pizza Pi, that’s 3.14159 26535 89793 23846 26433 83279 50288. Or, it’s cheesy deliciousness and you should probably wipe it off your face and eat it. All I knew about Pi going in was that it is apparently so good, President Obama himself invited the owner […]

Restaurant Review – Boogaloo

Posted: March 30, 2010 at 8:44 am / Local, Restaurant Reviews

Located in Maplewood near the Jive n Wail, Boogaloo tries to bring a bit of the Caribbean to the St. Louis area. Words like Jamaican jerk, creole, mango, Cuban and more fill the menu. But, you don’t go to Boogaloo for their menu. I don’t even think you go there for their daily happy hours (Mon-Thurs […]

Restaurant Review – Cyrano’s Cafe

Posted: February 20, 2010 at 5:31 pm / Local, Restaurant Reviews

When I ate at Cyrano’s Cafe for lunch it was definitely a change from my usually turkey, cheese and crackers. The menu is full of snazzy dining options, including various dishes with crab, lobster or shrimp. You would think a visit here may break the bank, but it’s actually quite reasonable, with prices ranging from […]

Posted: January 27, 2010 at 11:06 am / Local, Restaurant Reviews

When in the Loop, you can never go wrong. This Thai experience is proof again that the Delmar area of St. Louis is full of great food, strong drinks and lots of unique atmosphere! Our night at Thai Gai Yang Cafe began with Fried Tofu. I am not a vegetarian. I LOVE a nice, juicy […]

‘Tis the Season for Family, Friends and Fondue! The Melting Pot is one of my favorite restaurants to visit for celebrations of all sorts! I recently visited to celebrate my birthday, and The Melting Pot lived up to all my previous expectations. With two locations in St. Louis – Town & Country and the Loop, there’s a […]

Restaurant Review – Sage

Posted: November 10, 2009 at 4:54 pm / Local, Restaurant Reviews

I love Soulard. You’ve got your typical bars and pubs, a lot of great events and parades and a Farmer’s Market full of great finds. But, if you’re only familiar with the alcohol and the market fresh food, you’re missing out on the many restaurants hiding throughout the area, including Sage. Sage was a great […]

Restaurant Review – Ice Kitchen

Posted: October 18, 2009 at 10:13 am / Local, Restaurant Reviews

Westport’s Ice Kitchen is brought to you by the owners of the Drunken Fish. Ice Kitchen is considered a tapas bar. Tapas are just a fancy Spanish word for an appetizer/snack portion. Usually with tapas you pay an arm and a leg for a serving too small to fill you up. Unfortunately, I don’t know […]
