    The Strang Hall Chef Collective restaurants are adjacent to the new Cascade Hotel on the Plaza. They have four different kitchens, run by four different chefs, so every person can pick the food that want and dine inside their opening seating area. There are two bars onsite (upstairs and downstairs). I chose to order from the Khai-Noy Asian restaurant. Kitchens - Asian, Latin, European, and Italian

    My favorite Kansas City restaurant. It is one of the two restaurants on the second floor of the Strang Chef Collective at the edge of the plaza. Our first visit to the Strang Chef Collective was a little confusing - you walk in and can sit anywhere, and order from any one or more of the restaurants. You can order from the table or order up at the counter. The space is nice enough that this was a good alternative for a date night to a more traditional table service restaurant. But enough about the space, chef-entrepreneur Chris Jones makes some excellent, fresh food. We loved the ginger turmeric noodles- chewy, tasty noodles not drowning in sauce, with fresh vegetables sauteed in and sprinkled with beautiful fresh herbs (including cilantro and scallions). The garlic wings were tasty, tossed in a bright sweet and mildly spicy red sauce. The bhan mi with pork was really good. Back to the noodles - we ordered them with tofu, and the tofu was as good as it gets. Crab rangoons are frequently just a sum of their parts: wrapper, cream cheese, fry oil (and a sugar sauce). Which is usually tasty, assuming they weren't fried in oil that was too old or not hot enough. But a homemade crab rangoon with a delicate pastry-like wrapper and real flavor, dang. Amazing. Finally, we got a Thai iced tea, which was as decadent as it should be. We liked Chris and his restaurant so much that we came back a second time on our 2-day vacation. His menu changes from day to day depending on ingredients and what he has handmade. On our second visit, we thought we'd try the dumplings. Fantastic. As good as my favorite dumplings from a Michigan restaurant made authentically from scratch by a Taiwanese woman. We decided to try another noodle dish - the red curry noodles with beef. And what?! They came out without any red color. Instead of a sloppy sauce, the noodles were just as pristine as in the ginger turmeric noodles the night before. And they tasted amazing. Each piece of beef was enjoyable - they were not shreds of gnarly beef, but diced chunks from a good filet. Apologies for the low quality noodle picture - we were too busy enjoying the food to invest in photographing.

    Eating here put a huge smile on my face!…read more First of all, when you walk in, the decor is cute and welcoming, and so was the lady running the front. My friend and I ordered every type of lumpia they had to start and kare kare and sisig silog for mains. The lumpias were all good but the vegetable one was our favorite. Next, the mains came out and I was impressed with the portion! My dish, sisig silog was just $14 and was a massive full plate of meat and garlic rice with a nicely done fried egg. The kare kare was $16 but they gave 3 substantial oxtails which is generous. Honestly this food was so good. After many KC restaurant visits of mediocre or disappointing food, I could have cried tears of joy. The meat was perfectly seasoned, a nice balance of savory, acidity, and aromatics, and not too fatty or salty with some nice crisp/crunch from the pork belly skin. The garlic rice was perfect, not too oily or salty with good garlic flavor and complementary to the meat. Fried egg was crispy with runny yolk, the way it should be. The pineapple was a nice treat too, it was somehow so sweet? I tried my friend's kare kare and while I'm not a big fan of the dish itself, this is the best one I've had! And the oxtail itself was delicious - soft, moist, and flavorful. The only downside I can think of is that you might have to wait a while when it's busy since this is only run by a small family. Maybe try to be one of the first parties in the door. Go support them! Great food and great value. I certainly will be back whenever I can.

    I will not lie that Boru has been a heaven send for my ramen cravings! So glad that my partner…read moresuggested this place, and bonuses: they have happy hour every day (3-6 pm) and the servers are always so great! The place is on the corner with so many windows, that you can really enjoy the sun on a sunny day. They always have some sort of anime or something related on TV, and the inside includes high top seating, along with booths and tables (and a bar if you want to tuck in there!). Has a spot for everyone! One day after having some beers at a local spot, my partner and I were craving some ramen or noodle dishes. We stopped at Boru on his request, and I cannot get the Dan Dan Noodles out of my head! Just went back and tried my second of the four flavors of ramen (spicy miso!) and it hit the spot for a chilly weekend day--even better: ramen bowls are only $10 during the first hour of happy hour (3-4 pm!). Along with ramen options, they have noodles, sushi, steamed buns, appetizers, soju, same, beers, and cocktails. Honestly, if you're looking for a great happy hour place, a great little place to stop for some noodles or ramen, you shouldn't miss a chance at coming to Boru! After just returning, I'm already ready for another adventure in flavor!

    Ask for Bonnie! She's an amazing server!…read more This was our first time at Boru. We loved it! The cocktails are creative and fun. The atmosphere is great! Inside or out on the patio. Loved the music. We had the Bulgogi Bao, Shrimp Dumplings, and the Dandan Noodles. All were delicious!! The Dandan noodles were perfectly spicy! Not for the faint of heart. We can't wait to return and try the r ramen and other goodies here.

On top of solid food, the service is wonderful and they have an amazing kids menu. First of all the ambiance is what I've come to expect at Lulu's locations - it's clean, vibrant, and welcoming. It really was kind of perfect for our girls lunch. The salad I got said it was supposed to be spicy but I didn't really get much of any heat - it was still a tasty salad though. Honestly I think the noodles are probably the star of the show here, and I'll for sure return. For people that like to moan and groan about Lulu's not being the most authentic Thai place that's OK - I like that it's sort of it's own take on the cuisine, and you come here for that reason, not to get the same thing you can get anywhere else in town.

I had to go in and make sure it was my Blue Koi--and, of course, it was! The new location (compared to 39th St) has a charming atmosphere, and the menu is just as inviting and varied as I remembered. Plus some fun new cocktails including spiked Bubble tea. I went straight for a bowl; the seafood noodle bowl. I asked for a little extra spice, because I like my food with some kick, and it did not disappoint. The broth was flavorful, the seafood was plentiful and easy to identify, and there were plenty of perfectly satisfying rice noodles. I even had enough delicious broth left over that I ordered an extra portion of rice noodles to take home so I could finish the bowl later. My server, French, was attentive and just darn nice. Worth the drive for me. Sometimes a little unexpected detour turns into a very delicious discovery!
