      <![CDATA[cheapinkc, HRG owns every previously great KC restaurant, so I wouldn't be surprised.<br>
<br>
There were also Waid's restaurants in Shawnee on Nieman just south of Johnson Drive (it's a miserable Chineseish restaurant now). The JoCo Strouds location was also a Waid's Restaurant if I recall correctly.

      <![CDATA[I wasn't plunged into depression over the closing of Waid's in Prairie Village -- unlike my reaction to the demise of Mrs. Peters Fried Chicken in Kansas City, Kansas or Putsch's Cafeteria on the Plaza (even though it had gotten sort of crummy) or, the worst blow of all, the death of the Tee Pee Drive-In in my home town of Indianapolis. I wore black for a week when the Tee Pee was torn down.
