Up Dog on the Square

April 10, 2017 by Joe DeYaeghere 4 Comments

Up Dog on the Square

Up Dog, great time on the square! Wishing this place was on the square when I was in high school at St. Mary’s high school, Up Dog has a classic diner feel and a not so common menu of dogs to choose from. Located at 114 N Liberty on the Independence square at the corner facing into the square the nostalgia sinks in quickly. Saddle up to the counter on a stool or at a table … [Read more...]

Snack Shack on Santa Fe

Snack Shack on Santa Fe

On a Saturday recently I decided to try a local burger joint that has been on my radar for awhile. The smallish place is located near old downtown Overland Park at 8039 Santa Fe Dr. It was like taking a trip back to a simpler time before chain restaurants started to dominate the burger scene. This is a quintessential mom and pop diner that served up one of the best burgers I've … [Read more...]

Bleu Burger – Stuffed Burgers Done Right

Set up in Lee’s Summit Missouri, Bleu Burger is one of the only local spots that I’ve found with stuffed burgers show cased on the menu. On my last visit we sample an app, sides and two great burgers.  The app we noshed was the spinach and artichoke dip. Served with deep fried pita triangles the creamy dip with healthy portions of spinach and both chunky and chopped artichoke … [Read more...]

Niecie’s Restaurant

Niecie’s Restaurant

I really didn’t mean to cause any trouble.  But because I did, now Miss Myra gives me nothing BUT trouble. It all started back in March when my monthly dinner trio decided to meet at Niecie’s Restaurant.  Each month, we meet to catch up over pad Thai, baba ganoush, beignets, etc.  But in March, we wanted some good ole comfort food, reasonably priced. The first thing you … [Read more...]

Family First at RCs Chicken

Family First at RCs Chicken

A while back the wife and I took our two little food monsters to RCs Chicken. We are about to add a third food monster to the mix at the time and my wife was craving some fried chicken and we had been meaning to try RCs out for a while now. The food monsters were in rare form that night which put both my wife and I in a foul mood. It was about 5:30 pm on a Saturday night and … [Read more...]

Paleo at the Brick

Paleo at the Brick

When I accepted the offer to become a contributor to KCFoodGuys.com (thanks guys!), I did not anticipate that shortly afterwards I would decide to make a major change to the way I eat. In order to improve my health and quite frankly not have to add another ‘X’ to the labels on my clothing purchases, I’ve needed to finally make a serious commitment. I am still under 50 years … [Read more...]
