1. Mesob in Midtown: Doro tibs with collards and yellow lentils. Order extra injera: you're going to want it to soak up the rich, spicy drippings.

2. Reggae Kitchen on 55th and Troost: Oxtail with a side of rice and peas. Edwards' oxtail is absurd: luxuriously silky and rich.

3. Fannie's African & Tropical Cuisine: goat-meat soup with fufu. If a past experience with tough or stringy goat turned you off it, Fannie will set you straight. Fried tilapia with extra shito sauce is another great option.

4. Soiree Steak & Oysters: Shrimp. Po. Boy. Only available at lunch. Best eaten alone so you can lap remoulade from your wrist (it's messy in the best way). If you're a mac and cheese person—I'm not, but I respect you—the seafood mac is briny and creamy and a star of the genre.

5. My Village Grill in Independence: Efo riro with pounded yam. A smoky, spicy Nigerian soup packed with bitter greens. The samoosas are a fine starter, but you're ordering them for the incredible velvety dipping sauce, with a recipe Chef Ejelonu refuses to divulge.

6. Distrikt Biskuit House near Arrowhead: the Distrikt Biskuit Royale. The undisputed king of breakfast sandwiches. Soft, flaky biscuit with a buttermilk-brined fried chicken thigh, egg, cheese, and bacon. I'm sure the rest of the menu's good, but I will never know.

7. Big T's Bar-B-Q on Blue Parkway: Smoked turkey leg. This will satisfy your Ren Faire cravings. It will also feed you for three days. Slather it with the house sauce, which is thin, vinegary, spice-studded, and not-at-all sweet.

Breaking for dinner now (trying out the jerk ribs from Mesob), but will keep updating this.

8. M&M Bakery and Delicatessen on 31st. The giant apple fritter is cuddly soft and non-negotiable (get here early to make sure they don’t run out). The Hook ‘Em Up on an onion bun is the best intro sandwich, with pepper beef and turkey ham piled to juuuuust sustainable levels.

9. Niecie’s Restaurant at 64th and Troost.
@ckmcdkc is right—the chicken and waffles are famous for a reason. But I’m a sucker for just a classic diner breakfast: curly bacon, large-curd scrambled eggs, and a security blanket of crispy hashbrowns.Pokaż ten wątek -
10. Topknotch Vegan Vittles in Independence (call-ahead and carry-out only). The southern-fried jackfruit bites are super satisfying, with a crunchy, peppery breading. Get the glazed lemonade cake for dessert if it’s available.

11. Fat Jack’s Chicken and Fish on Blue Parkway. Order the jumbo fried shrimp (California King-sized, truly) with a light, seasoned breading. The creamy house cocktail sauce is great alongside. Grab a banana pudding for dessert.
