I think that might be a Kookaburra? Those things are loud / sound like a small engine starting up. Great pictures Nooner.

St. Louis Zoo is the best thing about St. Louis which I understand is not a high bar but it's one of the best zoos in the world

Go get sandwiches from Blues City Deli, the second best thing about St. Louis

The only way to positively ID a kookaburra is if it's also in an old gum tree.

Also obligatory.

We went to sugarfire for BBQ because I've never had "real" BBQ as I am from California.

It was good but like, pretty much the same as what you get from a bbq chain in California, if the idea was experiencing REAL st Louis bbq I would rather have gone to a legit place but whatever

If you have room for it later, Pappy's is where it's at for ribs but they're dry rubbed Memphis. Bogart's is supposed to be very good - new since I left town, but apparently by one of the guys who started Pappy's.

edit: It's in Soulard though and if you're going all the way down there you may as well just go to Blues City Deli imo

I get depressed looking at apes in the zoo. They hate all of us looking at them all the time and having nowhere to go to avoid it.

Except orangutans they love the attention.

It was the first zoo I ever went to and I have now been spoiled for zoos worldwide.
Also check out the St. Louis Science Center and the St. Louis Art Museum! And then get the gently caress out of St. Louis.

I drove through there with my kid a few years back and we checked it out without any research. Definitely kicked rear end. There were animatronic dinosaurs at the time, and my kid was in peak dinosaur phase. So it was legit

Seems like a cool city, but I like cities that are kinda beat up and gritty

Now come.to the Sedgwick county zoo. It's way better and they take amazing care of the animals. They had 4 baby elephants this year and are a major contributor to the breeding program!

Sugarfire is dogshit, I'm sorry you ate there. Stellar Hog, Bogarts are good, Pappy's is just ok.

Also if anyone tells you to get Imo's Pizza punch them in the face.

I love imos but I would only recommend it to other hogs. Pappy's is good but dry rubbed and that is an affront to St. Louis sauce lovers

And my brother worked at the city museum for like 8 years and has worked at Blues City Deli for 5! He knows how to pick em

I went to the St. Louis Science Center on a school trip as a kid and I remember a high shelf with a cross-section of a human brain in... I think a resin block? Anyway, I stared at it for probably 10 minutes and now it's a core memory for some reason.
