Modern Brewery

Ate at Modern Brewery on Oakland for the first time and wow the food was much better than I expected. They’ve really nailed the fries and it’s apparent their kitchen has high standard in terms of the cook on the food and ingredients used. Can’t wait to go back. This place punches above their weight for sure

Looking for a restaurant that has a seared scallop app.

Looking for anywhere that has a seared scallops on the menu but not solely seafood. From st Charles to downtown . Price doesn’t matter just the scallops.

Where should I eat while staying for two nights?

I will be in STL for a business trip for a few days. Any natives, what do you think the must-eat staples are that I wouldnt be able to get anywhere else?

Where can I find a FROZEN coffee?

Not iced or cold brew, but frozen. Similar to a slushy. I don’t think Starbucks sells them. I looked at their menu online. Thanks.

Buttermilk or Sweet Tea-brined Fried Chicken

I asked this is the wrong group, but coming to the STL foodie hive mind this time will hopefully give much better results. I’m new to STL and I’m trying to find a restaurant that makes fried chicken using a buttermilk or sweet tea brine. (Gus’s uses a marinade which gives a great flavor, but it’s not what I’m looking for.)

Chuck's Hot Chicken opening in Arnold

Good news!

The grand opening for the newest Chuck's Hot Chicken location at 231 Arnold Crossroads Center in Arnold, MO is this Thursday, October 24th. Menu offerings, like the other locations, are Nashville-style hot chicken, in heat levels 0-6, zero being just great capsaicin-free fried chicken and 6 being one of the hottest foods you can purchase at any restaurant around. You can get tenders, wings, or a sandwich, or pair your choice of chicken with a waffle. Sides include (but aren't limited to) fries, mac and cheese, garlic cheese curds (my personal fave), and corn fritters. Dip your chicken and sides in one of four delicious dipping sauces, and end the meal with a slice of cake or frozen lemonade.

This location is take-out only, so order pickup or delivery from Chuck's Hot Chicken or order in the restaurant at the counter or kiosk.

Anything similar to Kimcheese in the same area?

We use to love going to Kimcheese, they had a variety of meats and rice, sort of like Seoultaco a little bit. Just wondering if there is anything similar in the area that i might not have seen yet?

Puffy tacos

I’m dying for puffy tacos ever since Fort Taco crashed and burned. Does any restaurant in the metro make anything like these? I tried my hand at making the shells at home, but failed miserably lol!

Where can I get a good french dip?

Hi, lovely people. I'm really craving a good french dip. My favorite is at SoHa, but they aren't open for lunch on Sundays. I live in South Bevo, but I'm willing to drive. Thanks in advance!

Looking for Ramen Recs

Hi all! My boyfriend and I are headed to STL tomorrow for a concert- and we’re wanting to try something new. What’s your favorite ramen spot? Ideally something kind of trashy and vegetarian friendly!

The Hill

Hi, looking for a specific rec...what do we think the best place on The Hill for a "bestie Sunday dinner" is? My friend and I just want to put on cute clothes and catch up over good wine and food tonight. So, it obviously has to be open on Sundays (that's the trouble I'm running into) and budget isn't super important, but not crazy expensive. Thank you in advance!

Authentic chinese food

  • S-tier: Chilispot
  • A-tier: Cate zone, corner 17, wei-hong bakery (bakery only!), foundry bakery
  • C-tier: soup dumplings stl, tiger soup dumplings, restaurant inside of pan Asia supermarket, tai ke shabu shabu
  • F-tier: lulu, wei hong sit down dim sum

Unlisted:

  • nudo house is not Chinese food, nor is it authentic in any flavor of Asian food it serves(maybe controversial but I stand by this)
  • mai lee is excellent Vietnamese food but I wouldn’t classify it as a Chinese restaurant despite having some American Chinese dishes, so didn’t include it
  • did I miss anything? Haven’t tried joy luck or wonton king but I’m generally skeptical of both

I will be answering no further questions at this time
