The Scottish Arms pub in St. Louis has a new seasonal menu with a cheese and charcuterie platter that is TO DIE FOR. A couple of very mature cheeses, house-made terrines, apricot preserve and duck-breast prosciutto, local salame, etc! Topped off with a few pickled vegetables and fresh berries....
YUM!!! After the appetizer, i chose the salad-of-the-day -- field greens, roasted summer squash, tomatoes and green beans, with a smoked-salmon add-on. Also a couple of little ricotta fritters (that much wheat and oil won't kill me).
St. Louis isn't N'Orleans, but it's not to be sneered-at, as a restaurant town!
Mmmmm...that sounds heavenly...
