Everyone raves about this restaurant and I've been curious for awhile about the fare. Today a…read morefriend and I decided to go for lunch. I am not going to be one of those who raves. They have a vast menu and they have breakfast service. The food was good, prepared to order and served timely. There is no table service. Your order is prepared and they call your name to come pickup at a window. The restaurant is easily accessible and there is ample parking. Everything looked clean and neat. The problem I have with this restaurant is the price and overall pricing structure. This restaurant is very pricey. Nothing is included, either. Fries aren't included with a cheeseburger, for example. You would think that the price they charge, they would throw in an extra or two. I know they don't give free fries at large franchise places but this is another type of restaurant. So by the time you order main item plus a side plus a pricey fountain drink, this is a costly place. My cheeseburger didn't feel cooked all the way through. No one comes to the table to make sure your order is okay. It just felt empty against the hype backdrop. I'll give it another try but I'm sure prices won't have gone down.

I had no idea there is a local wagyu shop in town! Last night Eric R. and I attended a HYPE event…read morehere for a wagyu tasting. Our host Tyler shared the history of wagyu beef in Japan, how it made its way to the U.S., and what is different between the two countries in production. Booth Creek's ranch is located just 20 miles away, so the cattle are raised locally. Marbling content is verified for each cow by a lab in Japan! There are three levels of marbling (silver10-15%, gold 16-25%, platinum 25%+). This is not a quality indicator but is along the lines of USDA's select, choice, prime (though the fat content in wagyu is much higher). The store has frozen cases divided by these levels, as well as a frozen bargain bin (20% off) and fresh cases in the middle of the store. The tasting began with beef charcuterie boards: jerky, jalapeno cheese snack sticks, and summer sausage with some cheeses. Then we were served wagyu meatballs cooked in Cox's BBQ sauce and honey from Booth Creek. The second course was a picanha roast, smoked and sliced like a prime rib. It was really close to the prime rib flavor and texture, but at a much better price point. Lastly, Tyler brought out KC strip steaks (platinum level, seasoned with salt and pepper only) that were sous vide at 127 degrees, and seared them on a flat top in beef tallow. After he let them rest for five minutes, he sliced them and we got to try them. They were incredibly juicy and tender, seasoned well. It makes me consider the sous vide method at home though I do not have the tools right now. They offered some bundles and discounts as they kept the shop open late for us. We ended up buying gold label fajita meat and filet mignon steaks plus a bargain bin silver label filet tips. I cannot believe I have access to locally raised quality wagyu beef here in Manhattan! Beef is definitely what I had for dinner last night!

Where to begin. We visited Kansas City as part of our attempt to visit every state in the US. When…read morelooking for the best BBQ in Topeka this popped up first and foremost, and for a good reason. Holy cow. I believe I had some mild authority in saying this because we tried 5 different BBQ joints while in town -- this was hands down the best. Lonnie's is off the beaten path. We actually got to meet him while we were there, as well as Darren who acquired the business in January. We got a sandwich combo to split which included pulled pork, baked beans, and coleslaw. Upon ordering we were immediately questioned for not ordering the cheesy potatoes because it's what they are known for. Darren, who was serving us insisted we try a sample so that we knew how good they were. The potatoes delivered -- very garlicky and a bit tangy. The other people behind the counter were equally as lovely, explaining their sauce selection and just truly being so KIND. Throughout our experience several people took the time to check on our table or refill our beverage. The service was out of this world. Once we sat down, Darren brought over a sample of their smoked turkey as well. It was so moist and had fantastic flavor. It's definitely not a meat to shy away from. As far as what we actually ordered. The pork was tender and melted in your mouth. The coleslaw was refreshing and well-balanced. And the BEANS were the best I had while in KS/MO. Lonnie came over to share with us a few other BBQ places to try and had high praise for someone else's beans but his were superb (I know because I tried both). Sauces were sweet, mild, and hot. All were good but my favorite was the sweet BBQ. At the end of our meal Darren brought out mini pineapple cream pies. The establishment is testing out potential desserts so they were handing them out for free to patrons to give feedback. Simply, they slapped. Very mild but definitive pineapple flavor but so light and delicious. I'd purchase it for sure. The restaurant was clean, as well as the restrooms. Plenty of tables and the staff definitely paid attention to turn over to clean. Lots of parking. And a really cool pig out front. All in all 10/10. Thank you to Lonnie's!! **hoping i heard "darren's" name correctly hah
