For his Roaming St. Louis segment this week, KMOX host Scott Jagow dropped by The Landing, the cobblestone streets area of downtown that's making a comeback. One of the new tenants is Brew Tulum, a Mexican coffee shop that began in Tulum, Mexico. It's owned by husband and wife team A.J. Juarez and Laura McNamara.
Scott chats with Laura about the joy of Mexican coffee, the food they plan to serve in a new restaurant and the story of how Brew Tulum came to be. Listen below.
