Poll: What is the Best St. Louisey Thing?

[heyzeus]

If you do it right, the provel gets super melty and sticks to the roof of your mouth. [expletive] I love it.

hmm...well, if halt'z picture is the ideal...mine probably was a little darker than that...but i don't feel like much more...hah...what have i done?! this will be my rocky

Sounds like you pretty much did it right.

The dirty little secret nobody wants to admit is...

IMO's actually sucks. And I say that as a lover of garbage food. [expletive], I'd rather have a Red Baron thin crust.

You shut your whore mouth.

My biggest complaint with Imo's is that they aren't consistent. I loved the one that delivered to me when I lived by the Airport but I don't like the one that delivers to me now. They are a little better now that they are under new management but there is just something different about them compared to what you get at other restaurants. Imo's literally is great at some stores and garbage at others... and I don't like the one that delivers to me.

I may get kicked out of here but I'm just not a fan. Give me Pirrone's, Guido's or Cecil Whittaker's any day. Another place I'm really becoming a fan of is Reavis Pizza. There is a lot of really good St. Louis Style pizza around town so I don't have to rely on the Imo's near me to figure their stuff out.

Big fan of Imos the more I'm away from it.

My brother used to work at one and he would stink so bad coming home. Turned both of us off for a while. I can't remember what he said about it but he was not without comment.

This is a fair critique. But when people just dismiss STL style pizza entirely, well that I can't abide. Them's fightin words.

[GeddyWrox]

And also, YAY for Guido's. My brother used to live right across the street and he ate there a ton. He made me into a big fan as well.

[tlombard]

I get sucked into the argument all the time when people outright dismiss St. Louis style pizza. I don't defend Imo's but I will try and get them to try all the other really good places that we have around town.

I have tried hard in recent years to let people like what they like when comes to food, entertainment, fashion, etc. St. Louis pizza is maybe the hardest topic to do so, since I struggle to call it 'food' per se. But to each their own. The thing that bugs me as a local is that it limits the opporrtunity for edible local pizza options. When there's Imos, Stefaninas, Cecil Whittakers, etc everywhere, I'm left with predominantly national chains when it's pizza night.
