a new company to take over operations at the City Hall cafeteria.
The company hopes to transfer its restaurant success at Lambert
Airport, the Gateway Transportation Center and other locations
throughout St. Louis to its newest City Hall location.
Arch City Deli, a branch of OHM Group, currently
provides food service at the Gateway Transportation Center.
Beginning in March, owner Milan Patel and his brother-in-law
Keith Patel, will begin offering much of the same breakfast
and lunch menu at City Hall, along with some fresh twists.
