What should I eat to get a "Taste of St. Louis"?
I have read through this entire post and just wanted to add a few things...as far as pizza goes my two fav's are Dewey's on North and South in U-City and St Louis Pizza Haus on the Loop!!! Both GREAT places. And when talking ethnic places I love Arcelia's in Lafette Park, Wei Hong on Olive and Sub Zero in the CWE for Sushi. Voo is an AMAZING sushi chef and a great guy as well. I used to love Wapango in Chesterfield, but since the original chef (Jason Sparks) left it has really gone down hill. I will probably never eat there again which makes me sad. They had a great seabass dish and brunch was super good. Unfortunately Chef Jason Sparks was the talent there and whoever is there now just doesn't compare. I wonder what happened to him?
L'École Culinaire???
I just wanted to let you know that I know a few people who have graduated from the program at Le'Cole and one is working in Las Vegas now, one worked under a great chef at Wapango in Chesterfield and one has a great job in a bakery now. It doesn't instantly make you a chef, but having a culinary degree helps you get much better jobs in the industry and helps you move up faster. Good Luck and if you can...ask to be in Chef Sparks' 101 class. He is AMAZING!
