CULTIVARE CROSSROADS: GRAND OPENING

Cultivare: Grains and Greens have a brand new location in Parlor KC, in the Crossroads Art District! So we decided to kickstart our 4th of July long weekend by heading that way. Cultivare had opened its first location during a pandemic. As part of their first anniversary celebrations, they decided to add another location, in a different part of the city. Culitvare is a fast-casual restaurant, which has redefined how we think of grains and greens. Healthy eating is something that we have all learned to appreciate. They are giving away a free year of greens to one lucky person, in their Giveaway!

It is interesting to see both of these places evolve with time. Did I tell you had covered the soft opening of Parlor KC when it opened a few years ago? Have loved going back there with friends and family. Parlor KC is a collection of several restaurants in a building(more like a food hall) that is designed to look like an apartment.

Cultivare in Parlor KC is located on the main level, as you walk in. We found ourselves a comfy couch, and then it was time to check out the new menu. Yes, the new location of Cultivare has a new menu. Cultivare Crossroads menu will feature fan-favorites, like the Hanoi Chicken Salad and the Southwest Bowl, but also a few new items, like Steak & Gorgonzola Sliders and Chimichurri Steak Sliders, to cater to Parlor’s late-night crowd.

We decided to start our tasting session with the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. It is a Hawaiian-inspired bowl with poke, mangoes and is super delish. Cultivare grain blend(which I love), ahi tuna, avocado, mango, cucumber, sambal candied peanuts, citrus ponzu, sriracha mayo, black and white sesame seeds, micro cilantro. This is also a comparatively new item on the menu. I had tried it once at their Overland Park location and had fallen in love with it. So I knew I just had to order it. Are you one of those people who has their favorite items in their favorite restaurants which they always order? I am one of those.

The second item we tried was the Chimichurri Sliders! Petite beef tenderloin, grilled peppers and onions, and provolone cheese served on a sider roll, with chimichurri sauce. I mean what's not to love about that combination.

We had an amazing time at Cutivare Crossroads! It was good to try out the new items on the menu. It was also First Friday at the Crossroads Art District, which I haven't been to for some time now! Thanks, Culivare and TKG Agency for ensuring that our long weekend started on such a tasty note!
