St. Louis boasts some world-class restaurants, too, rivaling New
York for fine Italian dining on the famous Hill area, to the newer alternative eating
styles.

corporations are headquartered here, and St. Louis is geographically at the population
center of the United States, making the city a natural transportation and distribution
