Clementine’s Ice Cream sets the bar for frozen desserts
Sauce 75: the essential St. Louis restaurants right now
Now with eight St. Louis-area locations, Clementine’s sets the bar for decadent, creamy frozen desserts. The “naughty” booze-infused flavors run the gamut from pink Champagne sorbet to maple-bourbon with candied pecans. The “nice” flavors are fit for the whole family: Our favorites include the salted cracker caramel, vegan coconut fudge, and Italian butter cookie. Look out for their frequent collaborations and special holiday-themed flavors. But buyer beware, this ice cream is so delightfully rich that consumption of a full pint led to an ice cream hangover for one Sauce staffer, so you might want to cut it off at a scoop or two.

(Seventy-five is a lot fewer than you think!) Restaurants are constantly growing and evolving and go through ups and downs. Newly opened restaurants can take time to find their feet: There are a few exciting new places we’re cheering for, but which we feel haven’t yet fully hit their stride. Read the entire list here.
