I'll have to check this place out!
There's also this Chinese restaurant called New Peking in Westport: 540 Westport Rd Kansas City MO. I've been there with my Dad many a times in the past and we liked their ja-jang-myun and jam-bong.
Actually they used to sell bottles of beer, but as you mentioned the majority of their patronage is carryout and you can't sell alcohol with carryout, so they probably didn't sell enough alcohol to merit keeping it in stock when they're literally surrounded by pubs.
There's also a korean restaurant and market in Leavenworth.
Agree with Ben.
It's really impossible to find an authentic cheesesteak sandwich in KC except for the one place in KC that's know for making authentic cheesesteaks sandwiches with cheese whiz and Amoroso Rolls. Grinders.
Dumb articles are dumb.
This place is great.i
Decent sushi? Kokoro Maki is the best most affordable sushi in the stretch from Waldo to downtown. My personal opinion.
Hi Charles! Delighted Kokoro is getting the shout out it deserves. But I miscounted — there's also Korea House at 888 Market. It's really just a lunch stand in the very large Asian supermarket but their food (especially stews) is solid and they make their own kimchi and banchan, which they also sell.
Ferruzza is pretty good at identifying meat between two buns
Best pork tenderloin is at Chip Shot in NKC
The first thing that came to mind when I saw this article was Mario's in Westport. I used to eat one of their meatball or Italian sausage grinders just about every week when I lived close by. mmmmm
Real cutesy poo article. Their food is still gross. Grow some balls and tell it like it is. Or just keep giving positive reviews to fucking dumps because they advertise in the Pitch.
You can get a fluffer nutter at the Brick...duh!
You can get a Philly with cheez wiz at Grinder's, so it's hardly impossible--basically the place in town best known for cheesesteaks does them that way.
And Afficianado is right about the Philly roast pork. The version at DiNic's in Philadelphia is the best sandwich I've ever had.
I would kill for a good Philly style roast pork sandwich. Sharp provolone, bitter brocolli rabe and the umami of the pork is a sublime flavor profile.
For the record fluffernutters are fantastic. Fluff is a compelling competitor to jelly in the universe of peanut butter companions. In a fluffernutter, the bread doesn't get soggy. Fluff is actually a healthier choice nutritionally than jam, too. It has a somewhat different consistency and has a simpler ingredient list than the other marshmellow cremes out there, so don't knock fluff until you've tried the real thing. I buy it at the Price Chopper on Roe.
Even though it's a chain, Jason's Deli serves a pretty good muffaletta.
Since someone topped this, it's worth mentioning the ridiculous happy hour deals. The menu is solid as hell, great people in the kitchen and behind the bar. Foie gras biscuits and gravy....if you're going to do permanent damage to your body, it's one of the best options in KC at this moment in time.
I went to Tannin's one night after the KC Symphony and absolutely loved it. My group enjoyed wine and cocktails along with hors d'oeuvres. Everything was great and priced well. Will be back soon.
those who actually cook this food should be offended that they get no recognition most of these owners dont even know how to prepare these meals
Re: “Waldo's Kokoro Maki House makes decent sushi — and good Korean food”
After living in this area for years, I'm finally glad to hear of someone that has eaten at Kokoro.....I guess I'll have to give it a try!
