The 37 Best Restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri | Eater
"Since opening in 2018, Cate Zone has become a favorite for regional Chinese cuisine. The guo bao rou (listed on the menu as twice-cooked pork) offers a great introduction to the Dongbei region, where owners Daniel Ma, his wife Nancy Zhu, and brother Quincy Lin all hail from. The dish is made of thin, crispy pork cutlets coated in a glaze that perfectly balances sweet cooking wine and tangy vinegar. You can also try the Chengdu spicy chicken or the cumin lamb, both showcasing the restaurant’s flair for bold flavors. Its success has led to a second location in Chesterfield, which offers space for more diners, decor imported from China, and a few new menu items like dumplings and pineapple chicken.
