Mice droppings on shelves, gnats under sink: Latest KC-area restaurant inspections

From moldy food on grocery displays to roaches under a soda machine, health inspectors in Missouri and Kansas found numerous violations at Kansas City-area restaurants last week. Dining establishments like sit-down restaurants, drive-thrus, gas stations and grocery stores are required to get food inspections, and governments have to release those inspections to the public. In Kansas City and Independence, each city’s health department enforces the food code while in Kansas, the state’s Department of Agriculture handles inspections. The lower the number of violations, the better. Most restaurants correct violations at the time of the original inspection or shortly after. The full inspections show how each establishment has corrected or is working to correct any remaining violations. They are available for Kansas City at inspectionsonline.us/foodsafety/mousakansascity/search.htm and Johnson and Wyandotte counties at portal.kda.ks.gov/Food/FoodInspectionSearch. Here are the restaurants in Kansas City, Johnson and Wyandotte Counties that received seven or more priority and priority foundation ​violations from Oct. 25-31. No eateries in Independence met the threshold during this time period. Midtown Market-Desi Dhaba 3967 Main St. Nine violations found during Oct. 26 inspection Roaches were seen on a wall, while dead roaches were seen in paper towel dispenser. An employee was seen cutting cilantro

See inside: Historic River Market building to hold boutique hotel, Italian restaurant

Inside Look is a Star series that takes our readers behind the scenes of some of the most well-known and not-so-well-known places and events in Kansas City. Have a suggestion for a future story? Email our journalists at InsideLook@kcstar.com. A historic building in Kansas City’s River Market area is set to become a 45-room boutique hotel and feature a coffee lounge and bar alongside an Italian-inspired restaurant. Construction work is well underway on the future River Market Hotel , 415 Delaware St., which is expected to open in January 2027. Inside the 1880s brick building, the hotel’s look blends the structure’s historic elements, like exposed masonry and an original freight elevator motor, with more modern flourishes that conjure mid-century Italian design, like rich green tiles and frosted mirrors. The hotel will also feature an outdoor courtyard, an Italian-inspired restaurant called Covo 1880 and a coffee lounge and bar called Dialetto. Covo 1880 will include rustic dishes with a focus on pasta. The food program is being developed by Italian chef Luciano Monosilio, known as the “King of Carbonara” and one the youngest chefs to earn a Michelin star. The café will feature espresso, fresh juices and offerings that will transition

The Unusual Thanksgiving Appetizer My Husband’s Family Serves Before The Feast Disappears Fast

Becoming part of a new family means learning new traditions, which can vary greatly between different geographical areas in the country. I grew up in Mobile, Alabama, and my husband grew up in Kansas City, Missouri, so there has been a bit of a learning curve culturally for the two of us when we visit our families. My husband’s family is massive (like more than 50 first cousins on one side, y’all), so holidays are a production around there. And even though Christmas is a big deal, Thanksgiving is a bigger get-together for the entire family. This makes sense in Kansas City: There’s good food, football, and it’s usually not too cold yet. What’s not to love?

Popular JoCo doughnut shop opens first Kansas City spot, with drive-thru, patio & more

For the past 50 years, Mr. D’s has served coffee and doughnuts in the Kansas City area, though only in Johnson County up to this point. As of this week, it’s expanded its footprint to include its first location on the Missouri side — and the first one with a drive-thru, too. Mr. D’s has opened its third location (fourth, if you include its spot inside AdventHealth in Lenexa) at 2001 W. Pennsylvania Ave. in the Crossroads. The longtime shop is finally giving KCMO a taste of what Kansans have been devouring for half a decade. It took over a 10,000 square-foot building next to the highway, which was formerly a Pinnacle Imports wine shop. Owner Johnny Chen said his team wanted to utilize as much of the larger space as possible. “We knocked down almost half of it to convert it into a drive-thru, which is all covered, and a patio,” he explained. Even after cutting through the building, this is Mr. D’s biggest spot yet. Chen and his wife, Boggie Otgonbayar, have owned Mr. D’s for the past seven years. In that time, they’ve opened a spot in the Lenexa Public Market and brought their doughnuts to shops
