Oo! I've been there :) That was a pretty good place. Jun's isn't a
steakhouse, they have other dishes, ones that i prefer. But Japanese
Habachi is good too! :)

Kansas City has some excellent restaurants. WHen iw as in NY it was hard
to go places, cause i knew all the good ones in Kansas City! And you are
right about the BBQ in other cities. I tried a place in NYC and it wasn't
as good as KC BBQ. There is a BBQ place here in Vegas that is called
Memphis Bar-b-que. It is okay, definitly not KC BBQ, i'd rather have
Oden's anyday!
