If you haven’t been enjoying the Wichita Restaurant scene you are missing out! Yes some old favorites have closed, but the number of new and innovative openings combined with the long-time enduring favorites are sure to please. This show today will give you some insight on local dinning and FUN. Denise Neil from the Wichita Eagle joins me as my co-host this week, who better to talk about this vibrant segment of Wichita entertainment.
First up Chef Peter Moretti from the Wichita Marriott’s all new Fireside Grille. After a $5 million renovation on the entrance and ground floor you won’t believe how cool this new Marriott “Greatroom” concept is. We all loved the former Black Angus Grille but Fireside has an all new creative menu, wine list and more. Combine that with the spectacular decor, Creekstone Farms meat and it’s time to ear! Learn more, see the menu, wine list and view some photos!
Then Cynthia Wentworth, VP of Marketing for Visit Wichita will tell us all about Wichita Restaurant Week which starts January 22 through 31.

I’ll also be telling you about the January 19 AIWF Wichita Murphy-Goode Wine dinner at YaYa’s. A great menu by new Chef Chris Leyden and some fine wines from this stellar Sonoma producer. www.aiwfwichita.org
Good Life Guy’s Wine of the Week:
2012 Murphy-Goode “Liar’s Dice” Zinfandel
“The 2012 Lair’s Dice is as vibrant as ever! Juicy tannins invite flavors of black raspberry, black cherry, and blackberry jam. This is a one created to be a second glass of Zin! If you have one, you are certain to have a second.” Great Zin nose with soft tannin, ripe berry fruit and a jammy finish. Easy to drink and real easy to like.
