Oprah's Surprise Visit To St. Louis & Sweetie Pie's {VIDEO}

Oprah came to St. Louis (my new hometown) yesterday and today to film a version of Oprah's Life Class. While there, of course she had to help Miss Robbie out. If you don't know who Miss Robbie is, then you are not hip to Sweetie Pie's--the restaurant that St. Louisians love with all their heart. Sweetie Pie's seen each week on the OWN Network, Oprah Winfrey's network and has the highest ratings of any television program on the OWN Network. I love Sweetie Pie's, haven't been to the Mangrove location yet, but the food is awesome, as I'm sure the weight gain will be too!

Miss Robbie was a background singer for the Ike & Tina Turner Revue---and when she became faced with health challenges, she quit singing professionally and opened a restaurant in her hometown St. Louis. The food is so good there, that on any given day, lines can been seen down the street and around the block, of hungry patrons waiting to get in to taste some of that fried catfish and peach cobbler. The portions are great, and the service is even better. Sweetie Pie's will debut its season opener on Saturday, March 31, 2012 at 9pm EST.
