When Noble House first arrived in Wichita from Topeka, Wichitans could not be happier. Our restaurant scene needed some oomph and it got it in the form of Noble House Hawaiian Foods food truck. Coinciding with Wichita’s opening of the ICT Pop Up Park in downtown Wichita, it spelled a recipe for success. Wichitans flocked…

Chiang Mai Thai Restaurant
Best Thai food in Wichita
I will come right out and say that Chiang Mai Thai Restaurant serves my favorite Thai food in Wichita. A bit out of the way and in a neighborhood that I do not generally frequent, I consistently make the trip down to south Wichita for the amazing Thai flavors that come out of this restaurant….
Tokyo Japanese Cuisine
Unpretentious and underrated Japanese spot
“What do you want to eat for lunch?” “I don’t know, what do you want to eat for lunch?” “Well, so-and-so is eating low carb, and so-and-so does not eat vegetables.” We always find ourselves gravitating towards Tokyo Japanese Cuisine for team lunches because they offer a wide range of easily modified dishes at a…
River City Brewery
OG brewery offers decent food
Before breweries started popping up on every Wichita street corner, River City Brewery found its home near downtown Wichita. Since I discovered River City Brewery, I have only visited a handful of times and usually with a large group. This confuses me because I generally consider their food and drink pretty decent. Although they do…
Blue Fin Sake Bar & Sushi
Sushi bar somewhere in the middle
We went to Blue Fin Sake Bar & Sushi several months ago and I just finally got around to writing about it. Take it how you want to take it, but I felt like Blue Fine Sake Bar & Sushi fell somewhere in the middle as far as sushi bars go and I did not…
Da Cajun Shak
Best (and only?) Cajun restaurant in Wichita
With news of Da Cajun Shak owners hopping on the chicken bandwagon and opening a fried chicken restaurant, I felt a little disappointed because Da Cajun Shak original will always be the most surprisingly good place that I have ever been. You ever walk into a restaurant located in a strip mall and prepare yourself…
Little Lion Petit Café
Waffles, ice cream, and breakfast burritos?
I forgot to pack breakfast and lunch. I forget to do this a couple times a week, and I’m usually either thawing a sandwich from the freezer or being hungry until leaving for lunch. Today, I remembered that Espresso To Go Go hosts the Little Lion Petit Café that serves ice cream, waffles, various baked…
Beautiful Day Cafe
Tiny place with healthier unique options
Whenever we drove past Beautiful Day Cafe on Central, I always thought it was a daycare. It was not until my vegan friend recommended that we go, that I realized that 1) it was not a daycare and 2) what I was missing out on. Beautiful Day Cafe is unlike any other restaurant in Wichita,…
Advanced Learning Library
Welcome addition to updated downtown
After years of discussing the Central Library’s future, we finally saw the Advanced Learning Library come to fruition this past Saturday. We had the honor (along with 600 other volunteers) of participating the Ceremonial Book Brigade to pass 100 items by hand from the Central Library to the Advanced Learning Library about 0.7 miles away….
Thai Village
Casual Thai restaurant serving Thai and Lao options
Only a day after Thai House, coworkers suggested Thai Village and being on the Thai trend train, I obliged. I was determined to find a Thai restaurant that usurp my current (and potentially all-time) favorite. Nestled in a strip mall on the southeast side, you hardly notice it sandwiched in between a pool hall and…
