More about Missouri History Museum...
Short Description:
The Missouri History Museum is a thorough look at St. Louis history and culture, from the time it was just a village up until its present day glory.
Full Details:
Though named The Missouri History Museum, the Museum itself has a significant St. Louis bias (and who can blame it?). Featuring continually running exhibits about the 1904 World's Fair and St. Louis hero Charles Lindbergh, in addition to spectacular special exhibits, the Missouri History Museum always offers a fun and entertaining way to spend an afternoon learning about one of the greatest cities on the Mississippi.
All that walking and learning can get tiring, though, so it's a good thing they put a premier restaurant in the Museum as well. Featured on the Food Network's "Best of Museum Restaurants," Meriwether's serves up sandwiches, soups and starters with the best of them, offering traditional fare like pasta, as well as uncommon treats like a Bison burger and the popular South American grain quinoa.
For those who don't want a day's adventure, and would rather get room service from their hotel, The Missouri History Museum also offers online exhibits like the Lewis and Clark Expedition exhibit and Shifting Gears: The Automobile Industry in St. Louis, so you can lunch from your laptop.
For online exhibits, as well as menu information for Meriwether's, visit The Missouri History Museum's website.
