The Red Sea is a fun place to go for live music, belly dancing and eating with your hands. It is the only place in St. Louis to features regular belly dancing. It serves its dishes in the Ethiopian tradition, without utensils; patrons use injira (flat bread) to rake up the meat and vegetables and mop the juices of the stews. The specialty here is lamb stew, but there are also many vegetarian entrées. For the adventurous, Monday is jam session night. The Sahara Sand Belly Dancers perform every other Sunday beginning at 9pm; admission is $3.
• Hours: W-Sa 11a-3p; Daily 5p-10p. Bar closes at 1:30a daily.
