Re: Anyone from St. Louis?
I used to live there, quite a few desi places, depending on which area you live in. we were in the suburbs of manchester, mo (about 20-30 mins from downtown) on manchester rd itself quite a few grovery stores, Mid-East market is the best one, selling halal meat too. less than a mile from there was this desi restaurant 'Saffron', pretty good food especially the weekend buffet. oh and there is this Al Riaz take out place nearby which sells the most authentic home cooked Pakistani food, they are excellent for catering too.
another i remember was 'hot n sour', Indian hakka style chinese, halal and pretty good. in downtown st. louis on Grand ave there are a few middle eastern restaurants that were good, sorry don't remember names. oh and if you are into dahi baras, samosas and vegetarian stuff then there is Gokuls, its a south indian vegetarian place which has really good stuff. hope this helps!
