Dining
St. Louis boasts a wide range of eating options from fine dining to the downright funky. Whichever diner, café or restaurant you choose, you don’t want to miss these local specialties. A Slinger is a savory combination of eggs, hash browns, meat, chili and cheese. This Midwest specialty is a St. Louis diner standard and can be served in classic or creative styles. The popular Gooey Butter Cake was created in the 1930s when a local baker unknowingly switched the types of butter used in his cake recipe. This unique sugar-laden mix of butter, cream cheese, eggs and yellow cake is now a namesake dessert. Experience the other white meat with a St. Louis barbecue favorite, Pork Steaks. Whether you prefer it rubbed, brined, marinated or slathered in barbecue sauce, pork steaks are a must-eat when dining in St. Louis. Another top-choice of the locals is St. Louis-Style Thin Crust Pizza. Topped with Provel cheese (a special blend of provolone), Swiss and a rare white cheddar; the Lou’s special pizza pie will stand up with the best of them. Toasted Ravioli is an undisputed St. Louis favorite. Filled with meat or cheese, this breaded and deep-fried version of the classic is best enjoyed sprinkled with Parmesan and a side of marinara.
