One of the great things about living in a metropolitan area is diversity. Diversity comes with a variety of cuisines not “native” to the locale. Great meals abound; whether it is Japanese, Chinese, Thai, or other cultural cuisines, variety is the spice of life. What are the best international restaurants in downtown St. Louis? Below is a shortlist of three very highly ranked international restaurants in downtown St. Louis.
