Esquire Tests the Grilled Cheese at WInslow's Home

Evan S. Benn checks out what St. Louis has to offer for Grilled Cheese Month.

Esquire Magazine is taste-testing grilled cheese sandwiches from around the nation in honor of Grilled Cheese Month, and Evan S. Benn chose Winslow's Home, 7213 Delmar, to represent St. Louis. Benn reflects on what makes the sandwich unique to the garden variety, American cheese sandwich you may make at home. "A slathering of thyme butter under the bread gives the sandwich a fresh, earthy note. A last-minute sprinkling of flaked sea salt and chopped thyme makes everything pop," he writes. He gave the sandwich a 34.5 out of 40--see how Benn rated its cheese, texture, originality and 'intangible grilled-cheese essence' on Esquire. Where's your favorite place to order a grilled cheese in St. Louis?

Eating My Way Through University City: Winslow’s Home

University City Patch's resident foodie shares the scoop on her latest dining experience at Winslow's Home in University City.

Walk into Winslow’s Home at 7213 Delmar Blvd. and prepare to be dazzled. The setting is not familiar to 2011 America. Most people’s “general store” experience stops at the Cracker Barrel alongside the highway. Winslow’s Home, however, is a true gem in University City.

Based on the booming success it has had since opening a few years ago, it seems the  University City residents fully support the Winslow’s Home experience.
