The wait is almost over for Kansas City's fast-food connoisseurs --
we're less than 72 hours from having a Jack in the Box. Located at 211 South 18th Street, in the Prescott Shopping Center, the restaurant
is set to open for business at 9 a.m. Monday, November 1.
When Fat City recently asked, "Why does Kansas City love Jack in the Box
so much?," reader Emily commented that it was "the crazy menu with so
many different things." And it is a weird menu -- alongside the usual fast-food
suspects -- burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries -- Jack in the Box has egg
rolls, grilled pastrami sandwiches and mini funnel cakes. Not to mention
those tacos, which are said to be as cravable as White Castle sliders.
To whet your appetite, here's a series of spots from 2009, in which Jack
Box is hit by a bus and his lackey Phil tries to take over the
company.
