You grew up in Florissant...so if I even mention Hendel's or Fritz's or the Sno-cone lady, you know exactly what I mean. Roberto's, Mrs. O's, etc. Florissant has a lot of those things simply because of age. Kirkwood has them too in defense of WestCo. A lot of mom and pop's though may not be able to afford the store frontage in West Co. Think of Manchester for two sec. Would people even notice a store front restaurant if it were new? Would they go? Take the chance? It takes word of mouth advertising to promote family owned places. Maybe the older parts of the city and county are more inviting to the type of food you are seeking. <BR/>Plus, as a Florissant native, you must know that there are perceived differences between North County and West County. Half of them are positive and half are really nasty. A lot of people chose and choose to stay in Florissant for its flavor. They add on extra sunrooms, finish basements, and buy time shares. They could have moved to West Co or St Chuck, but they would have sacrificed some of that expendable income to do it. Some people are live and let live. The rest perceive West Co as the "popular kids" in HS, too stuck up to be taken seriously when they complain. <BR/>~*~Michelle~*~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
