I can see a lot of similarities between St. Louis and my home of Pittsburgh. The downtown area of St. Louis looks clean, with lots of green spaces and a mixed bag of architecture old and new. It's got rivers and bridges. Their sports teams, esp. the Cardinals, are a religion. The people are friendly. It's got that big small town feel. I'm not going to be here long enough to see very much of it, but I wouldn't mind coming back.
Local beer: Schlafly. I tried the coffee stoudt and pale ale, both very good. They also have a Hefeweizen, but I'm not so into that.
Local cuisine: I'm told it's IMO pizza and toasted ravioli. (Foods of St. Louis)
Walking around, I found three Toynbee tiles within blocks of the baseball stadium.
