Took an impromptu daytrip to St. Joseph yesterday & ended up having dinner at Il Lazzarone which a friend just told me about. It was their opening day. Modern design w/ open kitchen & nice patio out back. Sat at the bar watching everything getting made. Pizza oven was shipped from Italy. Gre...

Pigwich uses Le Monde bread/baguettes now.

My favorite thing about PT's is their refillable glass growlers of "Cold Front" cold brew coffee. Good value - $10 to refill, $17 initially to buy growler. Lasts me 4-5 days & especially convenient to have on hand at home during warm months. http://www.ptscoffee.com/learn/pts-at-the-cr...

The nouveau Farm to Market airy bread for my cheesesteak didn't work for me. Think this is the same bread used for the meatball banh mi. IMO these classic sandwiches are best with a classic bun, hoagie or baguette. Tried friend's burger which we both thought was just ok. Will go back for another try...

Went with a friend for some plates ($10.95) which come with red beans & rice, sauteed cabbage (supposedly carrots too but there weren't any) & cornbread. My jerk chicken was dry & the jerk seasoning was just ok. Cornbread was dry. Friend had chicken curry. Curry flavor was very forward, ...

Consistently delicious food in large portions. That tenderloin is huge. Salmon "rueben" w/ dill/caper/onion sauce was fantastic last week. Appreciate the friendly staff, low key vibe & variety of dishes. A regular spot on my lunch rotation now

They're still looking for/in the process of securing a location.

From their facebook page seems it will be in midtown & opening is planned for April 1st. As a half-filipina I am really excited about this news!

BTW my go-to place is Aladdin Cafe. I either (1) make a meal of my 2 favorite appetizers: Grilled rosemary shrimp & feta + Caulifower Zahra (so freaking tasty! Roasted cauliflower seasoned with garlic, chopped tomato and cilantro served w/ tahini sauce) or (2) Jasmines Vegetarian Combo (Hummus, ...

does anywhere in the KC area serve chicken & rice w/ white sauce like the beloved halal carts in NYC? (see recipe here: http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2011 ... ecipe.html)

I'm looking forward to it.

The new outdoor bar in the beer garden is GREAT!  Canopy cover to come in the future

Sad to hear Amor Picante was disappointing. Bet it was busy in part to their Groupon from last week ($15 for $30), which I'm planning to use soon.

I'm on yelp.

Friday saw: Alull (was looking fwd to this but underwhelmed, partially due to crappy sound at Riot Room), Dosh at Record Bar, El Ten Eleven at Record Bar, Small Black at Union (sounded good in the cave-like space & was my favorite show of the night), Louder Than Bombs dance party on the Union pa...
