"Approximate Drive Time: 1.5-2 hours Why it’s worth it: Long before Lazy Bear opened its doors, The Kitchen was innovating the restaurant experience as part dinner party, part theatrical performance. The menu is broken up into acts across four hours, with a lengthy, buffet-style intermission that encourages you to wander through the kitchen — or wine cellar, if that’s more your style — asking chefs questions and generally doing things you are not normally allowed to do at a restaurant. You can even ask for a dish to be prepared a different way, or if you love it so much, ask for seconds." - Eater Staff
