The St. Paul Banh Mi sandwich features a fried egg foo young patty that’s been mixed with bean sprouts and onion on white bread with mayonnaise, lettuce, pickles, and tomato.

Hi-Pointe Drive-In
When the crew at Hi-Pointe says they look forward to 314 Day all year, they mean it. To celebrate the 20th anniversary celebration, they’re going bigger and better. The St. Lunatic is back, of course: a signature smash burger with American cheese, piled with barbecue pork steak, Red Hot Riplets, toasted ravioli and St. Louis-style cheese sauce, all on pepperoni pizza buns. That’s right – Dogtown Pizza slices tie this sandwich all together. This year, the drive-in also has a starter pack that is “So St. Louis.” It comes with a St. Lunatic, a gooey butter cake milkshake made in partnership with Clementine’s Ice Cream and Strange Donuts, plus Red Hot Riplets fries with white cheese sauce. Everything about this meal is totally local, just how Hi-Pointe wants it. Everything is available for one day only, and guests who dine-in have the chance to win prizes.
