D̶a̶n̶c̶i̶n̶g̶ Eating with the Stars: Nelly Dines at JP Small Business Prime 55 Restaurant & Lounge
Welcome to Nellyville! Prime 55 Restaurant & Lounge recently hosted STL’s own Nelly in the Delmar Loop establishment. The Justine PETERSEN financed small business is the culinary oasis created by the trailblazing entrepreneur Tony Davis. Pictured with Nelly, Tony has created a fanciful two-floor restaurant and lounge, outfitted with two full bars and a tantalizing menu that weds American cuisine with touches of Creole favorites. Additionally, Prime 55 offers vegetarian and vegan entries. Cajun kale soup, lamb chops, blackened sweet chili salmon: it’s indeed getting “hot in herre!” Check out Nelly promoting Prime 55 on facebook here:

Pandemic Potion Pic (yup, yet another “PPP”)
This week’s beverage is indeed a “crisis concoction.” JP staffer Matt Chandler has been driven to the limits of pandemic cocktail creativity and resourcefulness with his post-modern, deconstructive “banana peppers, brine and Everclear” in a vernacular canning jar. Eat, drink and be merry all in one.
