St. Louis themed restaurant in Seattle

[Mary1966]

I went to visit my uncle in Seattle today and discovered that a local restaurant had been renamed the Spirit of St. Louis and had St. Louis themed decorations in it.





I had breakfast and the food was good.

Don't try the pizza.

There's actually a pizza place right around the corner:



They have Greek pizza.

There is so much odd about this, Mary. Is their menu basically just toasted ravioli, mostaccioli, cracker pizza and gooey buttercake?

I've heard of St. Louis-style Italian restaurants in other places, such as Lawrence, Kansas, but that restaurant (Intorno) ended tragically.

Maybe their specialty is a grilled St. Paul sandwich with provel cheese in a Vess Whistle soda reduction.

In honor of Lindbergh, one entree should be the America First, which would be plane-shaped toasted ravioli served lovingly on a bed of sauerkraut.

Where did you get this information? I just looked at the breakfast menu. Or are you talking about the pizza place?

LOL. I remember reading an article about what if Hitler had won World War II that had Lindbergh becoming President of the United States.

In The Man in the High Castle, Phillip K Dick described how it would have been with the Axis winning WWII.

Would a St Louis style restaurant serve catfish?

There's also The Plot Against America by Philip Roth, a piece of historical fiction in which Lindbergh is elected president in 1940 and allies the U.S. with the Nazis. It was no Portnoy's Complaint.
