I live in the St Louis, Mo area, and I was wondering if anyone knows of some veg places around here? I keep hearing about places, but someone will say, its down around the Loo, or around Kirkwood, or something, but that really doesnt HELP. The other day either on here, or in another group, someone was talking about a huge grocery store somewhere in the city, but they couldnt remember the name of it. Does anyone have any ideas?
Hey there! That store in Kirkwood is called Global Foods, and it's on Kirkwood Road, just a bit North of the Amtrak station. There are also wonderful Asian markets on Olive Blvd, between Delmar and 170. Oh, and Jay's International Foods on South Grand. Hope that helps.
Were you looking for markets or restaurants or both??
Blythep,
Thanks! I was looking for both, this is awesome, at least you are giving me a little more direction than alot of others were!
I'm from Alton, Illinois and one place I go to all the time is Green Earth Grocery in Edwardsville, Illinois. They carry a pretty nice selection of vegan foods, bulk herbs, spices, teas, organic beans and grains and dry fruit and nuts. There is also a deli where almost everything on the menu can be made vegan and if you come on the right day, there might be a small platter of vegan desserts.
I highly reccomend you taking a small road trip to visit this place.
I live in St. Louis also and am having a hard time finding places to eat out. Any suggestions?
Hey, awhile back I found out that Chipotle has veg alternatives, yay, there is one in Ofallon, about 10 miles from me!
