Johnna's Pick of the Week (Travel Edition): St. Elmo's

St. Elmo's-Indianapolis

After searching the U.S. for the best steakhouses, St. Elmo's is definitely competition from the Midwest. The steaks are tender and juicy and you just run your knife straight through..umm, dee-lish! Probably one of the oldest and most famous steakhouses in Indianapolis, St. Elmo's has become a staple for tourists, celeb's and the like visiting the Indianapolis area. The evidence is in the pictures that line the wall of celebs from famous actors and actresses to of course, Indy 500 winners and other fast, race car drivers. You couldn't talk about St. Elmo's, however, without discussing their famous cocktail sauce...O-M-G! This sauce is delicious! It is made from scratch everyday with the horseradish (which is the hottest thing you'll taste in life!) being made through some intricate overnight process (*that's their secret to this must try..). JKGF is not a spicy food fan, but this shrimp cocktail is a must order and for other non-spicy foodies...just ask them to turn down the heat on the sauce...they will, and it'll still be spicy :-(, BUT once you have one you are going to want 10 more no matter spicy they are...lol...
