Clock_Tower Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Call me slow to appreciate what is right in our very own city - but my wife and I went to Scottish Arms on Friday for fish n chips. Located at Sarah and close to Laclede. Just down from all the West Pine Apartments --- the area is sure changing - and for the better. Two thumbs up by the way. For all those who remember Rossino's Italian restaurant by campus - this area/restaurant is close by. https://www.stlmag.com/dining/memory-lane-rossino’s/ Maybe when things slow down after our run to the Final Four - we can start a St. Louis restaurants/eating tour thread in honor of Joe Bonwich.

Mrs. and Won and I went to Rossino's on our first date. I don't know if you saw it, but the new condo development catty-corner from Scottish Arms turned out great. There's a cool new condo development going up right across from the Rossino's building too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Highly recommend Blue Strawberry Lounge on Boyle north of Cortex. It is a cabaret lounge with various touring and local acts. Food was high level and the performance was very intimate in the small space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I prefer bourbon over scotch but the scotch selection looked great. And my draft beer - 90 Schilling was really good. My wife enjoyed Kronenbourg 1664 on draft too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old guy Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 The thing that is truly exceptional at Scottish Arms is the variety of single malt scotch the carry. You can go there and be certain to find something you have never tried before. Most restaurants carry half a dozen standard single malts and a bit more standard bourbons, usually nothing new to try out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If fish and chips is your thing go to the tap room. And I also like the Scottish Arms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Juniper is really good - definitely worth checking out. Retreat Gastropub (right across the street from Juniper) is really good too.

DoctorB Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Foodie out of towners might be surprised by the trendy food scene developing in the Grove/ Tower Grove Av. area. Indo, for instance, is a bit pricey but very cool with great, interesting food items. Same block as Union Loafer, Olio, Nixta, and Elaia. The Grove is also springing up some new places, like Layla for burgers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That place was awesome. Yeah Parkmoor was great. Used to skip 1st period at CBC and grab breakfast there until our dean (Mr. Bahr) figured it out. Too many great restaurants on that list to name. I was a bit confused after seeing Cyrano's (now in Webster) and Carl's Delis (across from St. Mary's and coincidentally next to where Cyrano's used to be) on that list. I guess they include change of ownership/change in location? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
