Kansas City's Best Place To Enjoy Three Martini Billable Hours?!?

Recently . . .

There's this weird myth the corporations are far more efficient and productive than government workers.

Reality check: Most corporate biz is composed of B.S. jobs jam packed with suits without any semblance of talent beyond schmoozing, backstabbing and talking a lot of smack about their rivals and the less fortunate. 

Accordingly . . . And merely to serve our betters . . . Here's a just a bit of local pride . . .

JJ's on the Plaza endures as Kansas City's top spot for socializing with local sharks and then billing those "critical conversations" to suckers and/or clueless shareholders.

Of course . . . 

We share a nicer write-up aimed at those with "the means" to enjoy this kind of upscale fare.

"Yet it was the tragic ending of JJ’s first location that led to the beautiful beginning of its second one, when Frantzé and his brother, David, were presented with the suggestion to reopen JJ’s Restaurant in Plaza Vista. It made good business sense, the 4,800-square-foot restaurant space is in a prime spot just off the lobby, with a cozy bar and separate dining room, along with a particularly stunning and spacious outdoor patio. A mere 18 months after the blast, JJ’s reopened in their new location with most of the original staff. "

Even more backstory that locals should know . . .

It’s been 40 years since JJ’s Restaurant first opened its doors, and there are some new and exciting changes afoot. Frantzé retired last year, leaving his restaurant in the trusted and capable hands of his nephew, Kevin Frantzé, who has a background in hospitality, having managed restaurants and hotels in California for many years.

“After 40 years of running one of Kansas City’s most loved independent restaurants, my Uncle Jimmy decided he wanted to step back from the day-to-day operations of the restaurant and focus on his true passion, the wine list. With my background in hospitality, returning to Kansas City to take the reins was a natural fit and dream of mine since I was a kid,” says Kevin, who now serves as JJ’s managing partner."
