West Wichita restaurant owners say morning burglary could put them out of business

West Wichita restaurant owners say morning burglary could put them out of business. Inside, stickers and posters cover the walls. Under the restaurant's low lighting, you find regulars at the bar or scattered among the tables. The smell of fresh dough and pizza sauce mixes with low-voiced conversation and rock and roll music from a modern jukebox.

12 Bathroom Habits in Kansas That Could Make Other Americans Uncomfortable

A Kansas trip can involve a city pool, a university recreation facility, a lakeside cabin, and a campground with a much simpler bathroom. The routines that work in one setting may be awkward in another. A shared towel service, a short shower, or an outdoor toilet walk can all require a moment of adjustment.

7 Russian Mennonite Foods from Kansas, Nebraska, and Manitoba

I use AI to help draft these articles. Every recipe and every fact in them is checked before publishing. When the first waves of Mennonite families left the Molotschna and Chortitza colonies in what is now Ukraine, they brought their foodways with them on the ships and trains that carried them to Kansas, Nebraska, and Manitoba through the 1870s. The settlements around Hillsboro and Goessel, Kansas, and the farm communities near Henderson, Nebraska, took shape fast: wheat fields, plain meetinghouses, and home kitchens turning out the same dishes their grandmothers had made on the steppe.

Wichita bakery has quietly been selling homemade bread, croissants since spring

Wichita is chronically short on businesses that produce fresh-baked bread and pastries. But a new one has just opened downtown, and its young owners have quietly developed a loyal following. Dinky Bread opened in May in the space on the lower level of the Garvey Center , 220 W. Douglas, that most recently was occupied by a different bakery called Jake’s Fresh Bakes . The space also has been home over the years to Perfect Plate and an outpost of Reverie Roasters . The new bakery is owned by engaged couple Allie Owens and Ryan Porcu, who started their business at the Kansas Grown Farmer’s Market in 2025. From their booth, they’d sell Allie’s flaky croissants and crusty loaves as well as Ryan’s homemade cookies. The booth quickly earned return customers and frequently sold out completely before the market closed. Porcu said he realized that Owens — who he nicknamed “Dinky” — had skills that would be in demand in Wichita and suggested that they find a brick-and-mortar location. The two found the vacant space at the Garvey Center. They’re now open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, when they sell fresh-baked croissants, pastries, sandwiches on Owens’

The latest on the two closed locations of Tropical Smoothie Cafe in Wichita

About a month ago, two of Wichita’s three Tropical Smoothie Cafes abruptly closed : The franchisee of the stores at 2768 N. Maize Road and at 9730 E. 21st St. sold them, and the new franchisee wanted time to do some renovations. But those two cafes will soon reopen, said new owner Aaron Toutloian. He’s aiming for Nov. 18. Toutlioan, who lives in Florida and owns 10 other Tropical Smoothie Cafes across the Midwest, said that because of equipment delays, he wasn’t actually able to make the kitchen upgrades he’d planned. “So we’ve decided to go ahead and open and just do the changes as we start getting the equipment,” he said. The stores will remain open, even while the equipment is being installed. Toutlioan said he’s been with the Tropical Smoothie Cafe chain since 2019 and originally bought franchises in Florida with his brother. Then the two decided to each run their own stores, Toutlioan said, and his brother still has 25 stores in Florida. Toutlioan, who is originally from St. Louis, said his stores are spread between Indiana and Kansas. His closest locations to Wichita are in Pittsburg and in Columbia, Missouri. In fact, he said, he’s considering
