OFF TOPIC: Questions regarding visit to St. Louis

[Patrick G.]

My wife and I plan on spending 2 nights in St. Louis on 5/27 and 5/28. We will be taking in a Cardinals game and probably do the Arch thang. My questions are as follows:

I just purchased 2 seats in the following section at Busch Stadium:

Section: 155 DIAMOND BOX
Row: D

Anyone know if this is actually the first row off the field, or is it the first row behind the Cardinals Club row of seats? Also, if there is anything else you can tell me about the Diamond Box section, that would be appreciated (personal waiter? if so, do I tip?, if so, how much? how often?)

Oh, and any restaurant recommendations for a nice dinner for 2?

I would be willing to take those tickets off your hands for you. Then after the game I could answer all of your questions for you!

In my mind there is no better place than http://www.citizenkanes.com/

Steaks and fish. They have a small menu but you really go there for one thing. Steak.

I would...
Start with a nice wine
Then go for the mushrooms and the BBQ Cajun shrimp.
Then a rib eye steak with mashed garlic spuds and veggie side
Save room for desert, the cheese cake and custard is a great way to ensure you will need a couch for a few hours afterward.

Now I'm hungry

Citizen kane has good food but I was thinking that were wanting someplace close to the stadium to eat and not 10 miles away, but I could be wrong. I have a customer of mine that runs the kitchen of one of the nicest resturaunts in downtown st. louis and he hooks me up for half price meals. We're talking prime sea food and steaks not Mc Donalds. I could maybe hook you up there and you walk from the stadium. Let me know.

Damn you Faz ,I re-read your post and it's making me hungry again. ughhhhhh.

I assumed that if someone were to visit St. Louis and were hitting the BIG attractions like the Arch and a ball game that they would for sure have to visit the Dog Museum which is quite close to Kane's.

If they are diamond box seats the Cardinals Club won't be in front of you. I think those are the "first row off the field" but there is a camera box right in front of you next to the dugout that the tv cameras/photographers sit in. I don't think that you have a personal waiter, I think that is only in the Cardinals Club. I'm not 100% sure, I don't get to sit that close very often. That's a great place to get autographs and baseballs (visiting team) if you are into that sort of thing, if so get there early while they are still taking batting practice.
