ON THE ROAD

Re: St. Louis.

There's a run-of-the-mill looking pub in union station. But when my fiancee and I went there two Decembers ago for a concert, we both couldn't stop talking about the food. Very good.

But, if you want some absolutely fantastic italian, make your way over to The Hill. Amighetti's is some of the best italian food I've ever had, and if you're lucky, there will be a couple mobsters in there (Don't worry, it's a family joint.) It won't break your bank, but wear stretch pants.

Amighetti's
5141 Wilson at Marconi
314-776-2855

 

Yes, do try the hill. And if you can get to it, try Ted Drewes Frozen Custard. It's been featured on cable. We'll just say that you have dig through the caramel to find the custard.

Also, when I was in the eighth grade, we ate at the McDonald's on the river. I wouldn't suggest that, particularly if that creepy guy who asks for spare change through a hole in his throat is around.

I think there's also a restaurant across the street from the stadium that is owned by former football Cardinals Jim Hart and Dan Dierdorf.

 

If you really want to party, you must go to East St. Louis. It will be a memorable experience. I guarantee it.

 

Wonderful advice. That's just what the people who are unfamiliar with the area should do.

 

Yah. Ask Kevin Stevens about that.

 

I really miss Super Smokers

 

Re: St. Louis...I didn't like Ted Drewe's as much as I liked Fritz's. mmmmm concrete.


Any suggestions for the greater Birmingham area? I haven't read 34 pages, but I'll be there in the near future. Help me out.

Gracias dixie!

 

Does anyone know of anywhere good to eat and/or any good watering holes near the Ballpark in Arlington? Me and Mrs. Bock decided we're going to the Yankees games there Saturday and Sunday.
Any help would be appreciated.

 

there is a wyndham, a rock bottom brewery, etc and an amusement park nearby.

 

Attention K-Mart shoppers.

White sauce (which for those who don't know is mayo-based) is meant for BBQ chicken. Only chicken. White sauce on pork is not part of God's plan.

And if you really want to taste the best version, you need to go to Pilgrim's BBQ in Russellville, Ala., which you will never find without the help of a local.

That is all.
