Total Information AM Weekend host Scott Jagow -- not a St. Louis native -- is hitting the streets to explore all the region has to offer. Each week, he'll wind up somewhere new, learning something else about the city he now calls home.

This week, he paid a visit to a popular delicatessen in the St. Louis Hills neighborhood. Whether it's Provel cheese, high quality pork steaks, homemade bratwurst or local spreads and spices, LeGrand's Market and Catering offers all the flavors of St. Louis.

And judging by the deli line at lunchtime, the sandwiches are hard to beat. Depending on your appetite, the market has more than three dozen choices, many named with St. Louis flair: Angry Billiken, Hoagie Berra, Stan the Man, Fredbird, Slapshot, Tom-Boy and more.

Listen below to Scott's interview with father and son owners Jim and Jim LeGrand. More information at https://legrandsmarket.com/.
