A Taste of Two Cities: Food + History Tour of STL Past + Present

(38)

Join a native historian & raconteur on a leisurely 2 mile walk through St. Louis' fabulous Central West End while nibbling on uniquely St. Louis treats from its most chic and enduring neighborhood. On this tour, you'll hear the good, bad, and ugly* history that created the city you see today + all the Dad jokes you can stomach at no extra charge. St. Louis was the fourth largest city in the US and brimming with Gilded Age wealth when the globally significant 1904 World's Fair happened right next door. Here you'll see grand hotels + mansions that once hosted royalty within view of the nearby Delmar Divide - a socioeconomic consequence of self-inflicted wounds that have made modern St. Louis a place where we grieve communities lost and aspire to replant communities of mutual aid and support like those that once thrived nearby. *TRIGGER WARNING: historical events regarding race and social justice are covered.
