GOOEY BUTTER CAKES

I
 
Lots of places have favorite local foods, and St. Louis in no exception. It’s just that ours are a little…strange. Toasted ravioli, or T Rav -  small, meat-filled ravioli, deep fried, dusted with grated parmesan and served with marinara as a dipping sauce. Cracker-thin crust pizza, cut into squares. An unusual cheese blend we call provel, a blend of provolone, swiss and white cheddar, extruded into little worm-like pieces, used on pizza and with some pastas. And then there is the diabetes bomb called gooey butter cake, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gooey_butter_cake

One of the Fringe acts was an old guy’s rock and roll band called the Gooey Butter Cakes. It was like, return with us to those thrilling days of yesterday. Honk if you get the reference.

Sorry no post yesterday. Out too late shooting, up too early to shoot more.
