It’s Restaurant Week everyone and let me be the first to say this is a fantastic way to try out places you haven’t been to yet or maybe frequent a favorite spot. My date and I tried out Starker’s Restaurant last night and had a wonderful meal. Kudo’s to them for hanging in there after the tragic death of owner / chef John McClure last October.
They are doing great!
Here are the logistics-
It’s $15 for lunch and $30 for dinner and all the restaurants have a prix fixe menu.
A portion of the money goes to Harvesters: The Community Food Network which provides meals to neighbors in need. Last year’s event generated more than $56,000. This year will be even better as it catches on. It’s for a great cause and it’s great for your wallet!
Over 100 restaurants are participating but there are only 3 days left and I recommend you make reservations.

Foodie Call
Dining out during Restaurant Week makes as much sense as flying on December 24th or going to Disney World during Spring Break. All the cheap bastards are out eating this week. Just send Harvester’s a check for $100.00 and go out during the week NEXT WEEK when these places aren’t filled with DOUCHEBAGS that think they know something about food and wine. EVERYTHING about the dining experience will be so much BETTER.
Great, Thank you!
Thanks for the listing & the awareness of Restaurant Week in Kansas City.
