"Kansas City has an exciting new batch of Middle Eastern restaurants, so when you’re craving hummus and flatbreads for dinner, or need a brisket detox with vegetables that are just as flavorful, Clay And Fire is the place to go. Everything in this cozy restaurant is wood-fired, like their grandma pizza and the trabzon pide with cured beef. This is a perfect spot for vegans and vegetarians, as they do great mezze like charred eggplant dip, roasted olives, and guajillo hummus. After dinner, take a stroll to look for your future dream house in the West Side neighborhood." - ryan bernsten
