  • 2008 | Best Place to People-Watch

    St. Louis is often thought of as a city compartmentalized by race, ethnicity, social class and (for natives, anyway) even which high school one attended. But on Saturday mornings Soulard Farmers' Market is one of the few places in the city where people of all backgrounds can be seen together shopping, socializing, trading recipes and preparing for the week ahead. Said to be the oldest farmers' market west of the Mississippi (established in 1779), Soulard retains a lingering nostalgia and... More »

  • 2008 | Best Doughnuts

    One of St. Louis' greatest charms is its wealth of doughnut shops. Choosing the best among them requires serious time, travel and consideration. Do we celebrate the cakey or the flaky, the fruity or the frosted, the doughnut or the hole? This year, we honor the fresh. Every Saturday at Soulard Market, Mini Donuts, Etc. one-ups Krispy Kreme with hot, fresh doughnuts all the time, not just when the light is on. As you stand in line, observe the tiny rings of freshly made batter as they drop... More »

  • 2007 | Best Place to People Watch

    Fish packers, pork rinders, candlemongers. Rastas, hoosiers, yuppies, crusties. Farm boys. Frat boys. Grandmas with walkers, babies in strollers, bakers on bikes. Chicken chasers, sunglass touts, free-range butchers. Freelance writers eating tiny doughnuts from oil-spotted bags. Faces and voices from Vietnam, Mexico, Bosnia, Nigeria, Afghanistan, Russia, Lemay, Baden, Edwardsville. Banjo pickers, one-man funk bands, public violins. Soulard Market on Saturday morning -- and nowhere else. More »

  • 2005 | Best Soap

    Eric and Mary Brende spent a week in Tennessee learning the recipe for their Hermann Handmade Soap, which will clean and moisturize even the huskiest bear. They sell at Soulard Market, where each Saturday one of them can be found explaining the qualities of their velvety product. Eric Brende is the author of Switching Off: Flipping the Switch on Technology, which recounts his and Mary's experience living the simple life in an Old Order Anabaptist community in Kentucky. It was there they made... More »

  • 2003 | Best Farmers' Market

    There aren't too many places left in the world where one can buy an eggplant, a bag of mini-doughnuts, 80 square feet of carpet, a live chicken, six pairs of tube socks, cut flowers, a loaf of sorghum bread and a pair of hog's balls all in one swipe. We're tremendously lucky in St. Louis to have the pleasure of this accommodation down by the river, where generations of hucksters have procured the fruity and meaty yields of great Mother Earth since before the Louisiana Purchase. There's no... More »

  • 2002 | Best Open-Air Market

    Often imitated, never duplicated, Soulard Farmers Market, a St. Louis fixture since 1838, is today the lone survivor of what once were numerous public markets in the city. Although other open-air markets pepper the metropolitan area -- Clayton and University City have them, for instance, and a fantastic little gem has sprung up in Edwardsville -- Soulard's is the best and largest. Farmers still tote their goods to the market as they did when the market first opened, selling produce, poultry... More »

  • 2000 | Best Soulard Market Produce

    In one familial permutation or another, the Kruses may or may not have the longest continued run at the Soulard Market, with a lineage that can be traced to Arlene Kruse's grandparents. It seems that's a tough claim to verify, but it's of little consequence in sorting the best from the better. Kruse Gardens, of Columbia, Ill., has the best produce on the row. Every Saturday, the bulk of the Kruse selection is homegrown, organic (though not "certified"), non-genetically modified good food.... More »
