Ask anyone in Kansas City, and they'll tell you the town has some of the best food in the country.
Seven local restaurants are proving just that.
Each has been nominated for a coveted James Beard Award.
That includes a nod to Waldo Thai for best chef. KMBC went to the restaurant to find out what sets it apart. Pam Liberda is again living her best life.

Grew up there. My father and Arthur Bryant were friends as my dad worked on his restaurant equipment at the original restaurant. They still make awesome BBQ but it isn't the same as when he was making his secret BBQ Sauce. Also Italian steak sandwiches are the best in KCMO!
