The heart of St. Louis, first opened in 1876. Site of the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition (AKA St. Louis World's Fair), which, legend has it, was the birthplace of the waffle cone, and the first time many foods were introduced to such a large number of people. These include Dr. Pepper, the hamburger, the hot dog, iced tea, and peanut butter. Forest Park also hosted the Summer Olympics that same year. The first time the Olympics were held outside of Europe.
One can also find several other points of interests at the park, including:
The Saint Louis Zoo

Their slinger is really not like our traditional St. Louis slinger, but its tasty. For a traditional slinger, try City Diner or Courtesy.

If you are a coffee connoisseur, this is the place to go for some of the best coffee.
It is... spartan. It is the opposite of what Netflix is to movies and TV. Instead of hundreds of choices, they have been boiled down to a handful.

"A place for everyone."
This place has some great menu items, and it also has a Frankenstein mural that I am tempted to abscond with every time I visit.

This place is tiny. A holdover, design-wise, of the '40s and '50s bar style diners. A word of warning, not only is the place small, so is the menu. Also, the owner may seem like you are intruding on his watching Korean dramas in the back, but he really is nice. More importantly, the bibimbap and bulgogi are some of the best I have had anywhere. I think the fact that its cooked on a flat top has a bit to do with that.
