Food and Drink Restaurants ideas outside of BBQ realm - Page 12

Alrighty. We're looking at going to Michael Smiths. We were looking at Bluestem, but the price was just out of what we were looking to spend. My boyfriend decided on Michael Smith's because he has received a Michelin star, and the price is just about where we are comfortable spending. Just thought I would see if anyone has eaten there, or if you know of any other restaurants with Michelin star chefs in the area.

If you're into beer just park in the Crossroads. You can now walk to about 8 breweries and distilleries from there.

Casual Animal, Border, Double-Shift, Torn Label, iTap, Brewery Imperial, Tom's Town, Lifted Spirits, etc.

You should have been around in the early years at Blvd. when occasionally they shared with a tour, all the weird shit they brewed that was reserved for investors and staff. Those were the days.

Now days brewery tours are about as boring as watching tree sap on a winters day.

Yes I believe you are correct.

Did he actually close MS to move a few blocks away to open Farina?

Where do you see they've earned a star?

French food is filling/heavy. What on earth?

I don't see where KC or its surrounding area has any Michelin star restaurants. However, I think French is good simply because my boyfriend is very into sauces. Looked at Le Fou Frog. I think he's pretty much decided to try Michael Smith, though. I read where his current restaurant will be closing whenever he opens a new one in November/December, so we'll be among the last people to eat there.

You are wrong, The chefs were trained/ worked in Michelin Star restaurants.

I have eaten at Cafe Provence and while excellent it was not up to par with NY or Chicago French restaurants.

There are NONE with Michelin Stars in KC Metro

I've been to Provence several times. It's fantastic.

Order the french onion soup and the quiche. Change yo ****in' LIFE.

Le Fou Frog is also great. Get the chocolate mousse for dessert. It's orgasmic.

Buy he is dead on about the French onion soup.. Houlihan's had the best in KC before CP (ha!) arrived on the scene.

Has anyone been to Brady's Public House in the old Mike's Tavern 55th and Troost? I watched a segment on it on fox4kc morning show. He showed Cottage Pie recipe the ground beef version of Sheperd Pie made with lamb looks delicious. He also said first time he ate beef brisket corned beef was in KC. They don't have a brisket in Ireland they use pork belly and pickle it just like corned beef. I wanna try this but he didn't give his recipe.
I am planning a trip there when I feel better. I found this video which is kinda interesting in its own right.

I think Luv wanted something different instead of BBQ on that visit to KC was bored with BBQ.

As for me I searched for a thread to put this without starting one just for this and this was close as I could find. Also, St Pats Day is coming up but don't want to get in that mess so this will be 2 to three weeks down the road. Looks right down my Irish ancestry alley and whiskey and beer.
