 When we crave vegetables, Frazer’s has our number. We’ve been known to make a meal of zucchini-ricotta-herb roll-ups and Frazertinis in the lounge. When world-traveling chef Frazer Cameron settled into the South St. Louis neighborhood of Benton Park in 1992, he served 25 customers max, with paper plates and plastic utensils. That’s a far cry from today’s restaurant, where 125 guests enjoy modern architecture hung with eclectic artwork (and use real flatware) in the dining area, lounge and patio. The global menu can include cauliflower and potato curry next to roasted chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, or Moroccan-style tilapia. Even the salads fascinate, with their toppings of wine-poached chicken or smoked duck breast. One of the few constants is the steak burger; it’s worth passing up the more exotic fare to sample it. For dessert, if you’re in need of comfort, nothing beats the Key lime pie---except maybe the dark-and-white chocolate bread pudding. The wine list reflects the restaurant’s roaming spirit; the cocktail list counters with lightheartedness.
