## Resource

A Midwest chef just won a James Beard Award, putting local culinary talent on the national stage, while Cardinals pitcher Andre Pallante’s dramatic turnaround—backed by new mechanics and mental focus—signals a breakout season. Meanwhile, Blaze Jordan’s debut and Dustin May’s dominance add excitement to the rotation, even as infrastructure woes like broken water mains and sinkholes remind us of the city’s ongoing, behind-the-scenes challenges.
