Meredith and Mike Shadwick, the team behind a slew of Kirkwood businesses – Honey Bee’s Biscuits + Good Eats, Spencer’s Grill, Walk Away Waffles and Tropical Moose Shaved Ice – joined us on The Sauce podcast recently. Now, Meredith Shadwick shares five of her favorite spots around St. Louis.

Sado
“Such a special spot. The attention to detail is unmatched, and it’s one of the few places that feels like a true experience every time you go. I think about their crab Rangoon all the time, I’m obsessed.”

Louie
“Consistently one of the best dining experiences in St. Louis. We don’t get many date nights, but it’s our favorite, and it always feels so special when we go.”

Café Amalia
“A new Kirkwood gem. The food is fresh and delicious. The owner brings in feta and oregano straight from Greece. We love it!”

DD Mau
“Fresh, fast, and consistently so good. It’s one of our go-tos, whether we’re grabbing something quick or just craving something really flavorful and satisfying.”

Porano
“I thought about not listing Porano since they’re closed, but I had to. It was my go-to during pregnancy and the first meal I requested after giving birth. It was such a big part of the last two years for me. I loved it so much, and I’m not over it being gone.”
