The mayor/council of 2003 passed a sidewalk cafe ordinance because business owners were getting busted for "illegal" sidewalk cafes, most notably the Cup and Saucer on Delaware. As was suggested in another post, the City Council should instead be motivated to make sidewalk cafes legal, wit...

Someone should look at the different cities ordinances on sidewalk dining and approach the council with improvements. If you see a sidewalk cafe with a barrier, it's likely a restaurant with a liquor license, because the sidewalk is a part of their "licensed premise". And the barrier does...

I understand there will be plenty o standin room with good sight lines--the way it happened in St. Louis last weekend.

Top Chef is coming to the City Market this Sunday, the 17th...

From the kcmo website: Package liquor business – A package liquor retailer sells alcohol in the original package to go.

Au Pied de Cochon in Montreal serves poutine with an ethereal gravy and topped with seared foie gras.

Sublime.

Chris Wilborn says he thinks he has an older panoramic photo that shows the south side of the building--he has many of Anderson's old negs (Anderson used to be at 1924 Main). He's at 531-9000.

Or name hints...

I called. No prohibitions on grilling. So, go for it.

Just be sure my beer's really cold.

It's not a city park. Just call the City Market office, 842-1271, if you have a question. I've seen people grill there...I've even seen people pick up after themselves.

Which of the three vacant storefronts at that intersection will be the convenience store?

The sausages (from NY) were tasty--they're baking their own bread--and the beer selection was quite fine. The menu is definitely Austrian, not German...I was fascinated to learn that chorizo is of Austrian origin...and that Austrians don't eat fish, and definitely aren't vegetarian...hopefully, with...

They had a deal with Highwoods on the Plaza that fell through, so don't assume that they will be out in the burbs.

Spicy thai cashews.

Buck O'Neil used to tell me that, amazingly, it was one of the few parks west of Troost that African-Americans felt comfortable in--and that it was a nice park.

There are differences between Cajun and Creole, but there are so many similarities that it's useless to argue about it, though south Louisianans love to do so. The two groups both have French backgrounds, but are from very different places. French Creoles were originally French settlers in New Orlea...

City Market. Rent is affordable.

And, as someone who travels to SW LA with the family once a year (Lafayette, Breau Bridge, Opelousas), good luck to you, and I am looking forward to sending plenty of business your way.

They ARE still trying to get a liquor license.  They have been jumping regulated industries (liquor control) hurdles and when they spend sixty days working to clear one, then they say, "oh by the way, you NOW need to...." As of last week, they were told/promised that the current hurdle is...

The bins are there now at Blvd, and the glass doesn't need to be separated by color...Ripple is also looking at more locations...go recycle!
