To get to know Ellie a little better, we asked her a few questions.

If you could create your dream meal in KC, where would you get your appetizer, entrée and dessert from?

This is possibly the hardest question you could ever ask me...

Appetizer: Rockhill Grille Tater Tots OR Extra Virgin Oysters

Entrée: Farina Lemon Creste di Gallo

Dessert: Summersalt Coffee Ice Cream OR Mildred's Cinnamon Roll

Drink: Green Lady Lounge Espresso Martini

What would you do on a staycation in KC?

I would totally do a staycation at the Crossroads Hotel and go to Percheron + Lazia. Or I would want to stay in the Golden and Pine Air G&P (haha)

Where is your favorite place to shop in KC?

I love all of the local shops! To name a few... Rainy Day Books, Ampersand, Westside Storey, Roots, Pink Antler, the farmer's market.....

Where would you most love to live in our city?

I currently live in Prairie Village (and honestly never want to leave). But I would love to live in the River Market (hello farmers market and yummy restaurants!), or Brookside (so I can walk to Homegrown and Bacaro Primo).

What's one KC classic product you can't live without?

THE FRENCH MARKET!!!!!
