I heard of Nara from a friend and he told me they had a awesome happy hour, so we went there for an early dinner and had a few drinks and sushi it was great the service was good, and the atmosphere was really cool, i felt like i was in LA or NY, very hip and upbeat. The sushi was good and for how cheap it is during happy hr there is no other place in KC that can beat it. I have heard that the Saturday nights DJ and lounge club is really chill and fun, but have not gone Saturday nights.I would recommend it to anyone who like good sushi for a good price Jason

I go to Thai Place that is downtown at least once a month. They have the best thai food in the city, if not the country. I was sad to hear that the one downtown is no longer open. I love their food so much that I now go all the way to Overland Park to get it. I have tried thai restaurants in Chicago, New York, Washington D.C., Miami, Baltimore, and San Francisco and none compare to Thai Place in KC. That is a tough statement, but I am saying it.

The only Brazilian store in the metro to my knowledge at the moment. The people are really talkative and nice. I went in search of a specific Brazilian coffee (Cafe Iguacu). The meat shop in the back sells imported beef from an Australian farm that is ran by Brazilians. According to the owner, it's the beef that most closely resembles what Brazilians consume back home. The Quality of the meat is apparently so great, that Fogo De Chao and a few other Brazilian steakhouses n the metro are now ordering their cuts of meat through this market. As far as other products, I did notice things such as guava paste, guaranca soda, Acai berry juice, and a few other things. More informations Kevin
