I'm not sure if KC has the same "moguls" that St. Louis does as far as restaurants. Between David Bailey, Ben Poremba, the OG hospitality group, Kevin Nashan and Gerard Craft, there are some quality concepts there. But yeah, every time we go there, my foodie friend is always like, "So... BBQ is now a big thing in St. Louis." or "Chicken is now a big thing in St. Louis" or "Southern is now a big thing."

I've been really impressed with the St. Louis food/drink scene over the last 5 years or so. It seems to be experiencing quite a Renaissance.
