Your Irish getaway isn't far away - it's at O'Dowd's Little Dublin in Kansas City!

O'Dowd's Little Dublin has brought a taste of Ireland to Kansas City for over 10 years - we opened our hand-carved double-doors on the Country Club Plaza in 1996 and added a second location the fall of 2005 in the Zona Rosa Shopping Center.

O'Dowd's feels Irish because it is. The imported interiors at our Plaza location are authentic. Nearly all of our woodwork - including the pharmacy, library and cigar shop - was handcrafted and imported directly from Ireland! Our Northland location at Zona Rosa boasts beautiful Irish murals and an artfully crafted Victorian-era Irish bar.

But it's our scenic views that have the neighbors jealous. O'Dowd's Little Dublin on the Country Club Plaza and O'Dowd's at Zona Rosa boast the best rooftop decks in the city - making us the place to meet friends and family for lunch, after work, and definitely on the weekends.

We've got amazing weekday lunch and happy hour specials, too - So skip the passport and let us pour you a pint! Your Irish Getaway isn't far away! It's at O'Dowd's on the Country Club Plaza and the Zona Rosa Shopping Center.

MENU

Bring a hearty appetite - because O'Dowd's Little Dublin has the BEST American Pub eats and Irish treats IN THE CITY! We've got the best tastes from here to waaaay across the pond. From favorites like Fish and Chips and Irish Stew to Chicken Wings and Prime Rib Sandwiches.

Finding yourself famished on the Plaza? You'll be lucky if you can finish our generous platter of fish & chips! And you will absolutely enjoy our authentic, award-winning Irish stew! At Zona Rosa try our famous Dublin Style Fish & Chips and warm your palate with our traditional Shepherd's Pie.

Tasso's Greek Restaurant is much more than just a place to eat a gyro and a salad with goat cheese on top.  Tasso's Greek Restaurant features live music and belly dancing in the evening hours.......yes, I said "BELLY DANCING".  Do not go to Tasso's for a nice quiet romantic evening!  There will be plates, shotglasses and other breakables being smashed on the floor during wild Greek dances.  Shouts of "OPAH !!!" are in order after every round of ouzo....we can't really remember much after that.  The food is good, the atmosphere is unforgettable.  Visit Tasso's if you've got a hankerin' for some Greek persuasion.

Padano Brothers Greek Restaurant
(816) 960-7000 | 2900 SOUTHWEST BLVD KANSAS CITY

From pizza to pasta, sandwiches to soups-and-salads, Padano Bros serves many Italian deli specialties with a little Greek thrown for good measure. Hot sandwiches range from a meatball grinder to an Italian sausage served with peppers and onions. Cold sandwiches feature capocollo ham and mortadella, in addition to more common deli meats. In the mood for pasta? Try the red sauce -- whether it's on spaghetti, ravioli or lasagne, Padano's sauce is yummy. Pizza? This deli does it New York-style, making its own dough and hand rolling it for just the right amount of chewiness. Try pizza by the slice until mid-afternoon. After that, you'll have to break down and go for the whole pie. Tired of Italian? Padano's also offers cuisine from Italy's Mediterranean neighbor. The gyros are good, and you can stop by on Friday or Saturday night for the Greek special, kota riganati, chicken baked in lemon juice. Whatever the day of the week, Padano Bros staff is friendly, knowledgeable and very willing to help you plan your next party. -- Anna Foote

Ruchi Indian Restaurant
3300 Bob Billings Pkwy., Lawrence, 66044
Phone: 785-312-9747


Ruchi definitely knows how to pick a location.  Nestled deep in the neo-hippy infested town of Lawrence Kansas (home of KU), the pocket poor but culture rich young hippies flock to Ruchi Indian Restaurant for a taste of the old country.  Seriously though, Ruchi has a great presentation of Seafood, Chicken, Lamb and Vegetarian dinners.  Prompt and courteous service and rock bottom prices, Ruchi Indian Restaurant delivers the chutney - eh - I mean the goods.  They even serve Indian beer!

Here is an excerpt from www.lawrence.com :

Ruchi
By Tom King

Sunday, May 8, 2005

Hospitality

"Will you take some lunch? Please, just a little."

Three times in fifteen minutes had Ravi Seelam inquired of my comfort, sincere inquiries, not the usual empty platitudes.

"Would you like to sit? Are you feeling thirsty?"

Service standards are high at Ruchi, the latest restaurant to settle into the space on the southeast side of the Orchards Corners shopping center at Kasold and Bob Billings Parkway. Ruchi’s manner of service is warm yet formal, solicitous, perhaps a little florid, like the service in crusty, venerable country clubs; a style of service--fast disappearing--focused entirely on the customer and the dining experience.

"Please, enjoy a little something."

Each time I’ve visited Ruchi, I’ve recklessly overeaten--sweating and crazed--to the point of pain. Maybe it’s the mixture of ghee and beer (but drinking wine made no difference); maybe those seven servings of nan with that fiery, salty carrot pickle (best washed down with beer); maybe it’s that mango lassi (a mixture of yogurt, sliced mango and fresh mango nectar which instantly douses a chili fire--a tart, sweet milkshake; a fine complement to a spicy lamb vindaloo), too cloying and heavy as an aperitif; and maybe, no probably, it is the tantalizing, awe-inspiring Thali (super-sizing, Ruchi-style), unquestionably a dalliance with the deadly sin of gluttony.

Oh, Thali!

You can order a la carte or you can order Thali.

Thali generally costs three dollars more than the a la carte entrée and there are over fifty entrees to choose from, in five categories: Tandoor and Kabob (marinated meats and seafood cooked in a clay oven), Chicken, Lamb, Seafood and Vegetable.

Say you order the Chicken 65 Thali--a strong recommendation. Not only will your waiter praise your choice and call you "Sir" at every opportunity (even women), he will set before you a round stainless steel tray containing five stainless steel cups surrounding a pile of basmati pilaf studded with peas and shavings of carrot and fragrant with caraway. Atop the mountain of rice, like lava oozing from a volcano, is your Chicken 65--cubes of boneless chicken breast marinated with peppers and "Indian spices" (turmeric, cumin, coriander, cardamom, fenugreek (a seed with a maple-like flavor), black pepper and ground sweet and hot peppers are common to many mixes), coated with egg batter and deep-fried, and garnished with a generous dollop of hot or sweet (your choice) mango chutney. Impressive indeed, and certainly addictive, but the Thali is all about the five cups.

Three of the cups hold soups: one is always Ruchi’s excellent and mild lentil curry--for me the benchmark, after breads, of any good Indian kitchen. The other soup changes frequently: one time, a tomato soup suspiciously reminiscent of Campbell’s with a dash of garam masala; a perfectly balanced sweet-spicy-sour tamarind elixir (Rasam) on another visit. The third cup contains the comforting Sambhar, a chunky potage of pureed potatoes and onions with peas, green beans and carrots. The fourth cup contains holds raitha (cucumber-infused yogurt, in this version)--only dairy, not water, effectively douses the flames of spicy food. The fifth cup holds dessert, which, on each visit so far, has been a soothing, cinnamon-kissed rice pudding. Thali also comes with bread--your choice of Poori or Nan, and, like India Palace downtown, Ruchi excels at breadmaking. Thirteen breads are listed on the menu, from the laser-crisp lentil papadum to dense parathas (pan-fried wheat bread, often stuffed with vegetables), to the Kabuli Nan, a chewy Tandoori bread similar to pita, stuffed with braised lamb, cashew nuts and dried cherries.

Other Things I’ve Thalied, or Seen Thalied

- Bhendi Masala: Okra fried with "curry" (like "Indian spices", a vague term to define highly individualistic combinations of a vast spice palette--great cooks of India are the global masters of culinary spice alchemy). A dish of contrasts: the tooth of the okra versus the bounce of the pilaf and the cool of the raita--quite a ride for twelve bucks.

- Lamb Vindaloo: I love it. Second after Chicken Tikka Masala--which isn’t Indian at all; it was invented in Scotland. The Ramones, also, love Vindaloo.

- Baigan Bartha: Ten years ago in Spain, Ferran Adria—in his forty seat restaurant that employed forty five cooks—was running pistachio-hinted foie gras and pig-sniffed truffles and any outrageously expensive ingredient he could find through whipped cream chargers to create avant-savory foams in severe, characteristically Spanish arrangements on $100 dollar plates at the price of $250 per head. Booked solid a decade in advance. At Ruchi, for the Baigan Bartha, they chop roasted eggplant--by hand, with plain knives--together with potatoes, peas, onions, garlic, cilantro and "Indian spices" to a consistency lighter than Adria ever dreamed, a composition as straightforward and startling as a Picasso. For twelve bucks.

Thali is beautiful. Thali can be painful. Thali is a guaranteed to-go box. Cold Ruchi might be your breakfast epiphany.

Oh Buffet!

Many the happy times I’ve had at Indian food buffets!

My last visit to Ruchi was on Mother’s Day, this past Sunday at 2 pm. The place was packed. Wisely, Ravi had opted for a Mother’s Day Buffet--big parties, always a tricky variable on a made-to-order menu, overwhelmed the house. I remarked on the number of turbans in the dining room.

"On the weekends, many people come from Topeka. There are many more Indian people in Topeka than Lawrence," Ravi explained. "During the week, 90% Lawrence people, American people."

I asked what the weekday bestsellers were.

"Tandoori Mixed Grill, Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala."

Ravi and I wove ourselves through the buffet line, dodging bemused customers. He was clearly proud of his food--I took notes as Ravi pointed out his favorites: Goat Curry and Chilly Fish (catfish). I asked if the Chilly moniker referred to the Scoville rating of the dish. "We don’t make things too hot at the buffet," Ravi stated. "but at night, you can have it as hot as you like."

We continued our buffet tango, sweeping lithely past the vegetable biryani (an elaborate rice casserole--a grand pilaf--of the northern Mughal tradition; at dinner, the biryanis are served with both raitha and curry sauce), and the idli (steamed rice cakes); past daal curry (lentils), chicken curry and masala dosa (a shell of ground rice and lentils fried in ghee--clarified butter--filled with a mixture of potatoes, onions, peas, turmeric, chiles and mustard seed); past the nan and the pakora and tandoori chicken until at last we settled gently at the salad bar where, amongst thickly-sliced cucumbers and wedges of tomato, amongst the wedges of iceberg and pots of coconut dressing and mint sauce and hot carrot pickle, there was the inevitable container of Ranch.

The buffet runs every day from 11 am to 2.30 pm--mango lassi and masala chai included. KU students with valid student ID recieve a one dollar discount.

The Brothers Seelam

Ninanjan, Ravi and Davender are the brothers Seelam. In 1999, they opened Ruchi in Overland Park, a runaway success (3 ½ stars out of 4 from the Kansas City Star; 3 stars from the Pitch). Ninanjan now runs the OP store and, one gets the sense, keeps a paternal and discerning eye on all the family’s ventures. Ravi and Davender handle the Lawrence store, which opened January 2005. Ruchi, by the way, means tasty--the name was Ravi’s idea.

"We feature both northern and southern specialties," replies Ravi, when asked what sets Ruchi apart from the mighty India Palace (my high regard for The Palace is public record).

"They are mostly from the north."

Southern specialties like Puliyodharai, a Tamil rice dish flavored with toasted coriander, cumin and fenugreek seeds, tamarind (the sweet-tart pulp of a large tropical bean), and turmeric, mustard and brown sugar, enriched with a handful of chickpea dal and garnished with peanuts and curry leaves; or Upma (known in India as “a bachelor’s dish” and blithely described on the Ruchi menu as Cream of wheat), a sublime and nostalgic semolina porridge--think polenta--with onion, chiles, coriander, cashews and tomatoes.



"We make very good food at Ruchi," Ravi proclaims. "Our saag (chopped, braised spinach) is from fresh leaves; we make the paneer (cheese)…but I won’t tell you the recipes. The recipes are the secret weapons."

With 124 items on the menu, Ruchi has plenty of culinary ammo. So far, I’ve been delivered no duds. And to think that Lawrence now has two world-class Indian restaurants within its city limits—what better reason for unabashed gluttony?

Get yourself to Ruchi! Thali ho!

"Yes, you eat too much, but it’s healthy!" Ravi cries.

“We have had Indian food all over the country and were surprised to find some of the best right in Johnson County, Kansas. The lunch buffet which runs 7-days a week is a great value filled with wonderful meat and vegetarian Indian choices. I can't say enough good things about the food, that explodes in your mouth with layers of wonderful Indian spices, or the attention that the restaurant staff give to their patrons. I wish every dining experience was this fufilling.

Berliner Bear German Restaurant
7815 Wornall Rd
Kansas City, MO 64114
(816) 444-2828


With over 36 years at the same location, Berliner Bear is by far the oldest, and one of the only authentic, German restaurants in Kansas City. With traditional German ingredients such as duck and rabbit, and plenty of yummy sausages to try, you can't go wrong. The atmosphere is pure family-style, with friendly, efficient servers and lots of regulars populating the bar. Parking is a little scary, since it's so close to the busy street, but grin and bear it -- the food and atmosphere inside is worth it. -- Kate Cagley (Photo: Kate Cagley)

From The Pitch Magazine

Kraut Pleaser
The Berliner Bear gives us a warm fuzzy feeling.
By Charles Ferruzza
Published: April 21, 2005

German restaurants have never exactly been abundant here, despite the city's historically large German-American population. And they've decreased in popularity over the past two decades, even as the city has seen a proliferation of Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and French restaurants. Changing culinary tastes obviously have a lot to do with this, especially given that the traditional vision of a German meal -- a plate full of bratwurst, dumplings, marinated red cabbage and hot potato salad -- sounds not only miserably heavy but so 19th century.

Berliner Bear Menu Samples:

Cold plate for four $15.50
Sauerbraten $9.75
German goulash $11.50
Rolled pork roast $9
Pig knuckles $10.95
German chocolate cake $4
Cheesecake $3.50

Berliner Bear If you don't count the Rheinland restaurant in Independence, there's only one German joint left. The 43-year-old Berliner Bear has been located in the same low-slung, buff-brick commercial building at 7815 Wornall Road since 1962, and a previous tenant (Fritz Lindig, the owner of Blackie's) served German food in the space for at least a decade before that. So little has changed -- inside and outside the building -- that the entire restaurant feels as if it's trapped in the amber of the Kennedy era. So 20th century.

When Joel Womack and his German-born wife, Nettie, turned Blackie's into the Berliner Bear, this neighborhood was still considered Kansas City's southern suburb, the perfect setting for a cozy little restaurant decorated like someone's basement rec room. The floor is red linoleum, the walls are paneled in dark wood, and every square inch is decorated with some beer-related adornment: mirrors, banners, plaques, pennants, lamps, signs, plates, posters and carved tableaus. The tables are swathed in black- or red-checked vinyl, and the "chandeliers" are made from barrel staves, with faux-Colonial yellow globes.

One wall is covered with framed photographs of the Womacks' children and grandchildren, along with dozens of Polaroids of favorite customers. Bill Womack, who took over the restaurant from his parents ten years ago, barely resembles the dark-haired kid in the 1970s family portrait hanging over the jukebox. But he's one of the only things inside Berliner Bear that has changed over the past four decades. Everything else is caught in the time warp, including a coin-operated machine in the grimy men's bathroom (so primitive that it looks like something excavated from the ruins of Pompeii) that sells "Savage Bliss" condoms and "Pixie Nude" decals.

It's all weird enough that you wouldn't be half-surprised to see Jimmy Hoffa and Jayne Mansfield sharing a plate of schnitzel over in the smoking section. But my friend Patrick corrected this notion as he stuck his fork into a curl of paprika-dusted ham from the cold-plate appetizer tray. "Not Jayne Mansfield," he said. "Marlene Dietrich."

Well, the late German-born sex symbol did have a fondness for fat sausages, which are some of the bigger attractions on the lunch, dinner and Sunday-morning breakfast menus. There are sausage slices on the cold plate, too, which is generously piled with meats and cheeses and oversized slices of buttered rye bread. On the Friday night I dined with Patrick, Bob and Peter (whose German-American mother knew her way around a cabbage roll), the Berliner Bear's dining room was less than half-full, but the place had a buoyant spirit anyway, helped along by the lively German music playing on a CD player mounted underneath the mirrored bar shelves.

Because German food retains the stigma of being heavy, fattening and unexotic, business has been uneven at Berliner Bear lately. Bill Womack recalled a recent Wednesday night when not one patron stepped through the front door.

"But we're still pumping along," he said. "A lot of our clientele is older, but we're getting new people in here all the time."

I guess I'm one of those new people, if only because it took me 20 years to work up enough interest in eating at the restaurant, which looks unrelentingly grim from the outside. Even if I did get an occasional yen for sauerbraten, I had mentally crossed Berliner Bear off my list for purely aesthetic reasons. Which was completely shallow on my part -- when I was finally dragged into the joint to eat a German breakfast one Sunday morning, I was absolutely charmed by the place. Then again, I have a soft spot for 1960s rec rooms.

I also have a not-so-secret fondness for heavy, fattening and unexotic food. If I had only known that Berliner Bear does an absolut fantastisch job preparing stuff you rarely see on modern restaurant menus -- pork roast, goulash, liver and onions, pork knuckles -- I would have been more adventurous in checking out the place.

The dinners are inexpensive, and the portions are more than ample -- two reasons that the place should be a lot busier than it is.

"I never think about German food," Bob said as he was making a hog of himself on a fork-tender rolled pork roast baked with apples. "But when I do, I like it."

I like any food that comes with a baseball-sized potato dumpling. This one was a shade more dense than I had expected ("My mother makes them much fluffier," Peter sniped), but it was very good. And I was able to finally satisfy my longing for a big plate of sauerbraten, the sweet-and-sour beef dish. Womack says he marinates the meat for ten days in bay leaves and allspice, then bakes it with cracked pepper and molasses. This succulent version wasn't particularly heavy, although the vinegary hot potato salad and the big mound of slightly sweet red cabbage that came along with it almost did me in.

Patrick finished off his German goulash in record time, even if he was disappointed that the egg noodles weren't homemade -- the long-simmered chunks of beef in a tangy tomato sauce were more to his liking, and he loved the dumpling. Peter, the fussy Germaniac, had brazenly ordered one of the Berliner Bear's least requested dinner offerings, the boiled pig knuckles, and was thrilled with the two giant knuckles that were set in front of him. Slightly gray and dry-looking, they weren't exactly a visual sensation, but the meat inside was surprisingly tender and flavorful, mildly seasoned with salt and pepper. "Excellent," he pronounced, adding that the sauerkraut, flecked with caraway seeds, was "the real thing." Womack told me later that he rarely sells more than two or three orders of the knuckles a week.

Berliner Bear The restaurant was out of apple strudel that night, so the four of us shared a slice of cheesecake with a sour-cream topping and a thick, fudgy slab of what our server insisted was German chocolate cake. We agreed that it was a dark-chocolate layer cake held together with brown-sugar-and-coconut frosting. But who gives a damn? German chocolate cake is an American innovation anyway, named not for the Deutschland but for Sam German, who created Baker's Chocolate.

The Berliner Bear's version of an even more American dish -- biscuits and gravy -- is a potent reason to haul out of bed on Sunday morning for the breakfast shift (which ends promptly at noon). It's a perfect combination of big, hot, fluffy biscuits and a thick, creamy gravy loaded with ground sausage. The rest of the breakfast menu skews heavily toward traditional German fare -- a steaming, thick apple pancake (big enough to share); eggs served with bratwurst and German fried potatoes; and a mixture of potatoes, cheese and eggs all scrambled together. The music, however, is strictly American pop. On a recent Sunday it was Simon and Garfunkel's greatest hits followed by 30 minutes of Randy Travis. And for some reason, all that beer memorabilia on the walls is a lot more amusing at 8 a.m.

The Sunday-morning service is attentive but a shade slow because there's only one waitress working the whole room. Everyone is very friendly, though. Every time I walk into the place bleary-eyed, I see people I know, and they always say the same thing: "Did you even know this place was here?"

Doesn't everybody?
