The "tickled pickle," on offer at Byrd & Barrel
How great of a month was September? We got a huge new burlesque-themed place, Seven Zero Eight, down in Laclede's Landing. (Remember Laclede's Landing?) We got a toast shop. (Take that, San Francisco!) And, finally, we got the food item this city has long been waiting for: The Tickled Pickle, which is basically a deep-fried pickle stuffed with a hotdog. Thank you for that, Bob Brazell.
