We were eating at Shaved Duck with a group when my friend went to the restroom which was a single coed restroom and I think right in the main dining space if I remember correctly (I haven't been in a couple of years). My friend who is more of a chain restaurant guy apparently could not fathom that a bathroom could be single use and thus the need for a lock. The door was locked as someone was using it, but again he did not pick up on that being a possibility. So he yanks on the door and it doesn't open due to it being locked. He keeps pulling on the door and thinking it is just jammed throws his entire body into it essentially breaking the door open. Well the door opens and there is a heavyset woman sitting on the toilet in pure horror and shock. Terrific stuff. Ha that's great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Katz's on my to-eat list during my visit. Have you ever been to Protzel's or Carl's, Roy? Hard to leave there without spending $15 on a sandwich. Although I'd imagine Katz's is a bit more expensive... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BR-if you like pastrami on rye, I think Carl's on Clayton Road, across from St. Mary's hospital might be the best in STL now that 2 Cents Plain is closed. Also for you Fried Chicken fans, Romines in North City where Hall St deadended into Riverview was the very best in STL. They closed a few years ago as the neighborhood went downhill, but Malone's Pub on Watson Road, just west of Elm has Romine's recipe and it is outstanding. Porter's is also very good, just not as crispy as Malone's. This thread is making me hungry at 3:25 in the P.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot about Malone's. I think there is also one up in North County. JohnnyJumpUp likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was technically in Ferguson behind the Toys R Us, next to what used to be a Circuit City. It's now a liquor store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had probably been in business 20 years already then. It had to open 40-50 years ago. JohnnyJumpUp likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porters is a staple at pretty much all our family graduation parties, they have really good fried chicken and as brianstl said have been in business for over 40 years. They are still in Deer Creek. My hot take for the day is Union Loafers has the best pizza in St. Louis. You can fight me if you disagree. JohnnyJumpUp likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UL pizza is a mix between new york style and neoplolitian, its very good. Also, I live withhin walking distance of Balkan Treat Box its really good. Been to Frisco Ballroom twice and was disappointed each time, great rooftop deck though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechee89 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 If any of you are ever in Des Moines, hit me up and I'll take you to Tasty Tacos. You'll see these things and wonder whether you're supposed to eat them or they're supposed to eat you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
