Description
Generations of families and restaurateurs have loyally turned out the delectable foods that made Kansas City the food destination that it is. Opened in 1930, the Infante family's El Nopal at 416 West Thirteenth Street is reputedly the first restaurant to introduce a wider Kansas City audience to Mexican food. The city's beloved Savoy Grill was not only one of Harry S Truman's favorite haunts but also the restaurant where many Kansas Citians remember eating their first lobster dinner. Amazin' Grace Harris's tiny Kansas City, Kansas H & M Barbecue kept alive Kansas City's Paris of the Plains reputation--for those in the know. Author and native Andrea Broomfield goes on a journey to discover the roots of Kansas City's favorite restaurants.
