Envision the finest domestic and international wines; a massive bar, lots of appetizers, burgers, salads and entrees too and a building full of lively patrons.
Like Phoenix rising from the ashes Busch’s Grove location will feature a restaurant once more. This incarnation will be a wine bar restaurant run by the enterprising family of Dee Dee and Andy Kohn. Andy Kohn is a Country Day graduate; their two boys graduated MICDS and the family has moved from Ladue further west. The husband-wife team already own and operate Edge Wild Restaurant & Winery in Chesterfield. That concept will be coming to Ladue.

Cutting edge Wild Edge coming to the Busch's Grove location sometime late spring.
This Saturday and Sunday, the Ladue-Frontenac Patch will go 1 on 1 with Andy and Dee Dee Kohn, the new owners along with Chris LaRocca in Edge Wild, the restaurant that will bring the shuttered Busch's Grove location back to life.
