Crepes, Etc.

52 Maryland Plaza St. St. Louis - Central West End

314-367-2200

American, Bakery, Crepes, Dessert, French, Menu

Upon arrival at Crepes, etc., diners order at the long service counter, take a number and seat themselves while they await their food's arrival. As expected, the menu features crepes aplenty, but other options include French toast, pancakes and a variety of omelets. The menu divides crepes into savory or sweet, with the former featuring playful choices such as the Beef...I Must Eat More Beef crepe, which is stuffed with prime rib, sauteed peppers and onions, mushrooms and mozzarella. Sweet crepes are of the more straightforward variety (think: Nutella and crepe Suzette).

Cyrano's

603 E. Lockwood Ave. Webster Groves

314-963-3232

American, Dessert, Staff Pick, Menu

Just like old times: St. Louis' favorite dessertery has been resurrected, in Webster Groves. A seasonal menu of appetizers ("little plates"), sandwiches, soups, salads and nightly specials provides an ample prelude to the decadent main course (as it were). Before you dig into dessert, sample seared tuna and herb-roasted chicken, both served in European-style portions that won't, um, ruin your appetite. When you're ready for the main event, the old reliable trio of flambéed favorites is still available -- cherries jubilee, and bananas or strawberries Cyrano -- as are the chocolate-encased Cleopatra and (likewise) the World's Fair Eclair. If those don't trip your trigger, choose from the seasonal list of scrumptious pastries.

Fozzie's Sandwich Emporium

1170 S. Big Bend Blvd. Richmond Heights

314-932-5414

American, Dessert, Hot Dogs, Ice Cream, Sandwiches, Menu, Slideshow

Though a small restaurant, Fozzie's follows the "more is more" principle. There are twenty sandwiches, almost all of them overstuffed, as well as burgers, hot dogs and gyros (and salads, appetizer dips and milkshakes, too). There is the B.A.B.T.L. (bacon and bacon, lettuce and tomato) with a half-pound of bacon, and the awesome "Big Bend Mafia," with Italian-seasoned beef and salsiccia. The signature dish might be the Juicy Lucy, a Minneapolis-St. Paul specialty that consists of a cheeseburger with the cheese stuffed inside the patty. The salads, featuring with vegetables from the restaurant's own garden, are very good.

Gelato di Riso-Warson Woods

9905 Manchester Road, Warson Woods Kirkwood

314-962-0660

Dessert, Restaurants

CLOSED Though gelato isn't made with cream (either whole milk or water is used), it tastes sweeter, denser and lusher than the ice cream Americans are accustomed to, because less air is churned into the stuff. And nobody in St. Louis does gelato better than Suzy Reis. For example, she offers two different versions of cherry gelato -- one cream-based, the other more like a sorbet -- and sources two different kinds of cherries (from Michigan and from Door County, Wisconsin) with which to make 'em. (For an added flavor jolt, consider popping an extra 50 cents for a shot of balsamic syrup on your gelato.)
