The newest location in the St. Charles County Park System, Spring Bend Park, is officially open to the public. Holding 126 acres of land just off Upper Bottom Road in St. Charles, the property was donated to the park system back in 2007 by Nancy Knowles and her family, who have deep roots in the area and operated a small farm on the land for years. The park now holds some beautiful prairie and river views to be explored.

Chef behind Famous-Barr's French onion soup has died: His story and the recipe

Manfred Zettl, a master chef renowned for perfecting one of the St. Louis area’s most iconic culinary creations — Famous-Barr’s French onion soup — has died. Zettl, 85, died of natural causes Oct. 30 in St. Louis, but the culinary creations he crafted over a lifetime will live on in people’s memories. At Famous-Barr, he oversaw 32 restaurants and 500 employees as executive chef. He later founded one of the area’s first diet-food businesses. He began his career in Austria and aboard cruise ships, serving Hollywood celebrities and heads of state. Whether you enjoyed the signature soup at Famous-Barr’s Scandia Room at St. Clair Square or in the downtown St. Louis tearoom after viewing the Christmas window displays, chances are you recall its distinctive aroma throughout the dining areas. The rich, velvety beef broth, loaded with sliced onions, was served in an ovenproof brown McCoy Pottery bowl, topped with baguette slices and a thick layer of bubbling Swiss cheese. Zettl didn’t invent the soup, but he was responsible for what he described as “perfecting” it. He told me its backstory when I was food editor at the now-defunct St. Louis Globe-Democrat, which closed in 1986. He was warm, friendly and

Since 1946, Ted Drewes Has Been Handing Frozen Custard Concretes Out The Window On Route 66 In St. Louis

They hand your dessert across the counter upside down, and not a drop falls out. That little flip is a famous ritual at a walk-up custard stand on old Route 66 in Missouri. The treat is called a concrete, and the name fits because it’s frozen custard blended so thick a spoon nearly stands up. The stand has no indoor seating, so everyone orders at the windows and eats outside.
