ILots of places have favorite local foods, and St. Louis in no exception. It’s just that ours are a little…strange. Toasted ravioli, or T Rav - small, meat-filled ravioli, deep fried, dusted with grated parmesan and served with marinara as a dipping sauce. Cracker-thin crust pizza, cut into squares. An unusual cheese blend we call provel, a blend of provolone, swiss and white cheddar, extruded into little worm-like pieces, used on pizza and with some pastas. And then there is the diabetes bomb called gooey butter cake, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gooey_butter_cake.
One of the Fringe acts was an old guys' rock and roll band called the Gooey Butter Boyz. It was like, return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. Honk if you get the reference.
Sorry no post yesterday. Out too late shooting, up too early to shoot more.

Enjoy the festival. Weird food is always fun, although I would probably hesitate to try some of it.
