So I finally made it to the Midwest! After three and a half hours in the sky, we arrived in St. Louis and checked into our suite at
The Cheshire.
The Cheshire, located right next to the beautiful Forest Park, is so charming! Each room is themed after a British author and we got the Peter Rabbit room overlooking the Tudor styled property and the beautiful pool. On the other side of the building, there is a really cute courtyard with oversized chess pieces (totally photo worthy). The highlight of our stay though had to be our dining experience at
The Boundary. We started with a couple of drinks, I had a glass of rosé while Jeremy opted for his go-to old fashioned. For appetizers, we (by we, I mean I, since Jeremy is allergic to fish/seafood) had the tuna poke and this out-of-this-world oysters with steak tartare and ponzu on top. We also had a cheese plate and this melt-in-your-mouth smoked pork ribs. Don't ask why we had four appetizers and yes we were pretty much full by the time we got our entrées. My sea scallops atop a plate of creamy risotto was delicious and Jeremy's steak frites was pretty much gone before I could even ask how it tasted.
The Boundary was amazing, the staff was attentive, and the vibe was great. Needless to say, we suffered a major food coma but we shall be back next time we are in STL. Thanks for hosting us,
Cheshire!
