As the saying goes, when one restaurant week closes its doors, another will open them. The Power & Light District is piggybacking on the first Kansas City Restaurant Week and bringing back District Restaurant Week.
The event runs from today through Sunday, February 7, and you'll have your choice of a prix fixe lunch ($10) or dinner ($25 or $30) from one of 21 participating restaurants. MeMa's Bakery and Savvy Coffee and Wine Bar will also be offering discounts during the week.
MeMa's opens at 7 a.m., giving away a free bakery item to the first 100 customers each day. Savvy offers half-off brewed coffee, espresso and iced tea between 7 a.m. and 2 p.m. and $3 and $5 wine specials from 4 to 7 p.m.
The lunches are two courses for $10, which includes a $5 gift certificate that can be used towards your next meal. The Marquee (inside the AMC Mainstreet theater) has several hamburgers and donut holes for dessert; consider the McGee (10 oz. patty, fried egg, sauteed mushrooms, bacon, Tillamook cheddar cheese, red onion and tomato). Fran's has a choice of appetizer, soup of the day or garden salad and an entree of either chicken fried chicken or meatloaf. For $15 at the Bristol downtown, you can get a cup of lobster bisque and a plate of lobster mac n' cheese with white truffle bread crumbs and grilled asparagus.
The dinners are three courses. With each dinner you buy, you get a $10 gift certificate good towards your next visit. For $25, for example, Raglan Road has traditional Irish fare: soup or salad; shepherd's pie, fish and chips, Guinness bangers and mash, Irish Stew, sage chicken; and Ger's Bread and Butter pudding. And among the $30 offerings, a standout appears to be the 801 Chophouse: caesar salad or lobster corn chowder; filet mignon Iowa Berkshire pork chop or Atlantic salmon; and mini cupcakes/creme brulee).
