These were originally made at Charlie Gitto's on the "Hill" in St. Louis (although this is not their proprietary recipe), but most restaurants around there have served them at one time or another. Another St. Louis standout that is not far from there is "Ted Drewes Frozen Custard" (there are several locations). If you stop at Gitto's for the ravioli, be sure to drop by Ted Drewe's for a concrete afterwards. If you've been there, you "know". If you haven't, well...what's keeping you?
