Trip to the Lou: The Food!

Funny pic of my mom.
She had already cut up the Duck, darn it. 
My mom saved this bottle just for me... I wonder why? ;)

 Home Cooked Meals: My favorites!
-Duck with mashed potatoes and green beans with bread crumbs.
-Chicken Spiedini with broccoli, brown rice, and stuffed mushrooms!

"The Square Beyond Compare" 

Imo's: I ate it twice while I was home! Half of an extra large all to myself! Yum! 
I will keep trying to replicate this pizza... got the authentic cheese from my brother Dan and the sauce. Now if only I could figure out that wafer-thin crust! I'll probably have some more shipped to Las Vegas before that happens. 


Mom at The Women's Exchange
The famous Woman's Exchange Salad, half eaten. ;)
The Woman's Exchange:
I've been going here for years! My friend Cathy introduced me to this place when were kids. The organization is 128 years old!!! For more info go to http://www.woexstl.org/index.html  I've only ever gotten their salad. I never wanted to try anything else because it's amazing! I love visiting this tea room every time I go home.


I've been here once before, when I registered at Crate and Barrel. 

Enjoying my Mocha. 


A random coffee house in Clayton. Sometimes it's just nice to have a coffee from somewhere other than Starbucks. ;) I had a Mocha and we split a Chocolate Eclair and I had no idea how many calories were in either!


Not featured:
The Pasta House- Their salad and lasagna are to die for! 
Bread Co-I know we have Panera in Las Vegas, but it feels more authentic to eat it in STL, because it's called St. Louis Bread Company there.
Penn Station-The best subs ever. Period.

Didn't make it to Lion's Choice, Fritz's, or Culvers...maybe next time. ;)

  2. Have you tried the Jiffey Pizza crust mix? It always comes out really thin for me. It should be by the pasta in the grocery store.

    Sounds like you had a great trip home!
