I once had a Wichitan tell me that on the border was better than any restaurant in KC. He'd keep it open by himself

Taco Hut was the best Mex place MHK ever had. Don't think they'll ever come back, so I'd certainly settle for OTB. Loved that place when we were in Wichita.

exactly my point. if that dump of carlos o kellys can stay in business not to the mention the small handful of other crappy sit down mexican places in town then just think what an otb would do. i mean, i like money you guys and this would be guaranteed to give me a bunch of it.

This is true. I'm an expert at this. Since I've worked at three mexican restaurants: OTB, Carlos O' Kelly's and some dump in Garden City for awhile, I can confirm that OTB would rake out the chz!

Hmmmm.... This is a classy joint. We might need it near the mall. I don't know if we need it associated with aggieville's antics. Maybe on a corner across from the mall? We can get all the shoppers! We'll practically put COK out of business.

prelim designs have it going vertical and horizontal. like what if you want to go to the fourth floor but you want to go to the gameroom on the fourth and everybody knows the gameroom is in the southwest quadrant and you are currently in the kitchen which is obviously in the northeast then you just punch in "gameroom" and it takes you up and then after you go up it starts moving through multiple horizontal "shafts" and deposits you right at the entrance to the gameroom? wow!

just make sure the elevator goes down to both the lap pool with romance grotto in the basement and up to the Desire Cancun inspired roof top hot tub

One is a place for young urban professionals to unwind, listen to some rock-n-roll, drink some sig cocks and eat some legendary burgers.  The other is for daxes to letch after sad college girls who have just enough money to not have to strip.

idea for a restaurant. it's a restaurant on wheels without a kitchen. i pick you up at your house in my car or minivan or bus or whatever, you guys get the point. then inside, i have menus for every restaurant in town and once you get in i just start driving then after a bit i'm like can i get you a drink and then when they say what they want i drive to a convenience or liquor store or whatever and purchase them their drink. they stay in the vehicle though. that's an important concept. then we drive around for a few more minutes and i'm like have you decided on anything and then if they say yes, they place their order and i drive to that place and get the food they want. this works out nice because what if you have three people in the car that want so long saloon but somebody else that wants harrys. well in the current world the one guy is probably going to get screwed and end up eating so long food when that's not what he wanted. i mean i guess he could just go solo to harry's and eat while everyone else is in aggieville whooping it up but that doesn't make much sense. in my scenario, all four get to eat together and all four get the meal they want from the place they want. wow! thoughts? i'd call it "the cruisin' cafe".

so you pick up a steak for someone at Harry's then head to the Little Grill to pick up some jerk chicken for someone else in the car.  What is the guy holding the steak supposed to do on the way to TLG?  Just hold his steak and let it get cold?  Eat it, but you said in this model they would all eat together.  Are they eating the food on their lap?  Stick to the OTB dream I guess.

restaurant concept:  only serves meat and potatoes and corn and pizza and tacos
restaurant name:  vegetables

"hi honey, sorry i had to work late tonight, did you eat dinner?  did you eat vegetables?"
"oh ya, honey, i had tons of vegetables, that's all i ate!"    ;)
