Brian’s First Time at Lulu’s
Posted on May 22, 2026 by Ching under Food and Drink.
We had dinner at Lulu’s Thai Noodle Shop in Crossroads while we were in Kansas City earlier this month. Somehow I was convinced that Brian and I had been there before. Brian insisted he had never been but I knew for sure that I had. Anyway, I dug up this post from ten years ago. Long story short, I suggested that we go over there for dinner and he said no but then I got my wish a couple of months later when I ate there with some coworkers.
Fast forward 10 years later, he finally got to try it. Also, you know it’s good because it’s still around. Few restaurants survive the test of time.
We walked to the restaurant from our hotel so we enjoyed a few drinks and didn’t even think twice about it. LOL.
Here are some pictures of our food.
I decided to have soup because the walk was a little chilly and I was unprepared for cooler weather. I didn’t even bring a hoodie. Anyway, this is the Tom Kha Gai which is not quite what I had expected. I feel like I had Tom Kha Gai at our local Tup Tim Thai here in Wichita and it was different. Different or not, it was good and I still enjoyed it. I slurp, slurp, slurped it.
Speaking of walk. I took a couple of pictures of Brian in one of the alleys we walked past on the way to the restaurant.
Here’s the funny thing. Ten years ago, when I asked to eat here, Brian refused citing that he thought the area looked “sketchy” and here were are ten years later — not only are we eating there, but we walked to and from the restaurant even. Either the Crossroads District has come a long way in the last ten years or we have.
