ANNE ELISE PARKS PICKS HER OWN A-LIST
Nail Salon
- Salon Six Zero Seven & Spa: “In a hurried world, one thing you don’t want is a hurried manicure. Their staff seats you with a beverage from Blondie’s, next door; their nail polish selection boasts beautiful variety; and my nails have never looked better—and polish never lasted longer.”
Brunch
- Vin de Set: “My first experience here was for Easter brunch, and wow, were my expectations exceeded. Right off the bat, you’re drawn to the rooftop deck with views of the Arch. Then there’s the food, from the carving station to the mimosa–and–Bloody Mary bar, pastries, waffles, and omelets… You’ll only wish you had room for more.”
Drinks
- Taste: “The mixologists have mastered the drink menu—and countless other drinks not even listed. Not sure what you like? No problem. They are able to take a few of your preferences and concoct the perfect cocktail for you.”
Tradition
- Great Forest Park Balloon Race: “Suddenly I’m a child again. There’s nothing better than dusk on glow night, when all the balloons are being lit and the sunset is creating the perfect backdrop. It’s a fairy tale come to life.”
