This is a wonderful Thai spot! The food never fails, and it has delicious fusion dishes with very generous portions. They have one of the most expansive beer lists around, too. Vegetarian options are easy to find and numerous, making this place a very welcoming and satisfying experience for all sorts.

A great spot for authentic Lebanese-inspired Mediterranean food! Vegan options are easy to find, and the dishes are always prepared fresh, and you can call ahead for carry-out orders. The staff are all friendly; the first time i went, they offered me a Chef Special that was wonderful and filling!

Most people wouldn't come to St. Louis expecting good sushi, but this spot serves up some pretty good rolls! The all-you-can-eat lunch and dinner special is probably one of the best deals I've encountered: $13 for lunch and $20 for dinner makes it easy to feel like you're robbing them! I can't vouch for the regular menu, though; I only get the all-you-can-eat!

This place is AMAZING. A buffet-style lunch and dinner lets you try several wonderful dishes, and there are vegan options to enjoy, as well! While they are only open for lunch and dinner (closing at 2:30pm and re-opening at 5pm), it is totally worth it. And the lunch buffet is less than $10!

If you want truly St. Louis-style pizza, skip Imo's (a sin in most native's eyes) and try Faraci. This place is the real deal, no doubt! Speedy orders and a dine-in area make this a great choice if you want to eat a piece of St. Louis culture. WARNING! There is a second Faraci far to the south, so be sure you're placing an order at this location.

This place is famous! Shakes, malts, candy, and diner fare offered in a space that hasn't changed in decades, be prepared for potentially long waits. I suggest the "Heart Stopping BLT"--made with a whole pound of bacon! (I also suggest splitting it with someone...)

This is a beautiful park with a wonderful frisbee-golf course full of long drives and hilly doglegs. You can also venture to the very back of the park where it touches the Missouri River--and, if the water is low enough, walk out to Pelican Island!

This park has a medium-difficulty frisbee-golf course and plenty of space for children to play. Some nice wooded areas make this a low-key, out-of-the-way place to find some seclusion.
