Bordered by I-44/Kingshighway and Hampton Avenue, The Hill features a plethora of bakeries, restaurants, and specialty food stores scattered throughout the neighborhood. Pasetti highlights the Missouri Baking Company, Vitale Bakery, Cunetto’s restaurant, and Zia’s restaurant as favorites. Rest assured, many visitors come hungry and leave stuffed—on my last visit, I certainly did.
