Are you a Foodie or just like good food?

Tired of trying to figure out where to go for great advice on food?  You can have a culinary exploration from your home by browsing our Food & Nutrition Research page for fun restaurants and recipes.

One of my favorite ways to do this is to check out Feast, which is based upon the local St. Louis magazine and has something for everyone.

When you go to the website, there are categories such as Dine Out, Dine In, and Drinks, as well as several others.

 - Dine Out -

Where We Are Dining has reviews of local restaurants, Out to Lunch focuses on new places to eat lunch, and Sneak Peeks gives you the inside story about upcoming openings of restaurants and more . . .

 - Dine In -

This section includes an extensive recipe database, introduction to new foods, and Tech School for those who want to take food to another level. Another great thing about this area is Cooking with Kids which encourages kids to have fun in the kitchen.

 - Drinks -

Featured items include A History of Missouri Wine, Getting to the Root of Bitters, Made in Japan and more.  They spotlight places and even have Cocktail Recipes and The Mix which allow you to make your selections at home.

Other exciting websites to check out include:

·         Allrecipes.com

·         Epicurious.com

·         Chow.com

For Healthy eating:

·         Cookinglight.com

·         Eatright.org

Websites featuring famous people include:

·         David Leite

·         Michael Ruhlman

·         Martha Stewart

Whether you want new recipes or videos, just like looking at food, or want some new places to go with your friends and family, the St. Louis County Library has your connection.

Here’s to good eating and fun with your friends and family! Cheers!
