A culinary history of the Gateway City and the memorable restaurants that once made their home there.
St. Louis is a food town, and there are many restaurants that have captured the heart of the city. Some of them are no longer around. Rossino's low ceilings and even lower pipes didn't stop the pizza-hungry residents from crowding in. Jefferson Avenue Boarding House served elegant "Granny Food" in plush surroundings. King Burgers and onion rings ruled at the Parkmoor. Dohack's claimed it was the first to name the "jack salmon." Author Ann Lemons Pollack details these and more restaurants lost to time in the Gateway City.
"Few St. Louisans know the history of the St. Louis food scene like local food and travel writer Ann Lemons Pollack. . . . The book is a treasure trove for St. Louis history-lovers, beginning with an extensively researched look at the food served at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Expositionbetter known as the 1904 World's Fairhosted in St. Louis. She debunks some mythshot dogs were not "invented" at the fair, but perhaps found a wide audience thereand charts the various restaurants and cafes that fed eager fairgoers."Feast Magazine
