The 32 Essential Restaurants in Kansas City
"This cramped diner on the east side has been famous since 1951 for its pork tenderloin sandwich, which has little in common with the thin, plate-sized cutlets popular in the Midwest. The tempura-breaded tenderloin here is modestly sized and piled into a three-ply stack for maximum crunch. Grab carryout or port your tenderloin to the small patio next door. Bring cash, and don’t let the line deter you; it moves fast." - Liz Cook
