Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbeque
KC's own style of BBQ is pit-smoked and slathered with heavily-seasoned vinegar-based sauces. Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbeque in Country Club Plaza is for people who'd rather dress up before dripping sauce on their pants.

Terrene
This bright, contemporary space defines itself both through its food (pan-roasted chicken with wilted spinach, chickpeas, roasted garlic, natural jus and chive butter, for example) and its dedication to environmentalism. It serves meat, but Terrene is also a vegetarian favorite.

Crown Candy Kitchen
An authentic family-run soda fountain that's been making families smile for decades. Malts come with spoons, the floats, well, float, and you can snack on chili dogs where the wiener groans under the toppings. Homemade candies top it off.

Le Fou Frog
Take a trip to Paris without leaving the prairie at this small bistro that's authentic right down to the at-times brusque service. The food is superb, especially hearty stalwarts like cassoulet. Tables outside are to be cherished.

Bailey's Chocolate Bar
It's pure brilliance. Bailey's specializes in chocolate desserts and alcoholic beverages (with some brilliant combos: white chocolate raspberry martini, anyone?), with cheese plates and pizzas thrown in to conceal the decadence.

Saleem's
Saleem's 'Where garlic is king' is the alluring motto, and the favored flavor shows up in Saleem's kabobs, kofte, silky hummus and other Persian dishes. Portions are huge.

La Cantina
La Cantina is a narrow place, makes a mean salsa tomatillo and has a pretty good bar. Brick walls and a press-tin ceiling lend this Mexican restaurant a friendly feel.

Duff's
