CHUY'S OVERLAND PARK - GRAND OPENING

Since I started my journey in blogging as a food blogger, it is always great when I get to write about food. Chuy's opened their latest location in the Kansas City metro area, in Overland Park, just off 135th street. I was invited for their VIP opening night, to soak it all in, before it opened to the public. I love me some good Tex-Mex and it is always great to back at Chuy's. 

Good food was surely on the agenda, but a proud mom moment featured high too! Do you recognize one of the cute pup pictures up on the bar at Chuy's Overland Park? Yes, Blaze features on the Doggie Hall of Fame. So if you are headed there, make sure you get a selfie with his pic of on the wall. I might have exhaustedm y whole camera roll, at Chuy's that evening. 
As you wait for your food order to come in, you cannot help but admire the eclectic decor of this restaurant chain. While Elvis shrine finds its pride of place at every outlet of Chuy's, every restaurant has its own signature take on the decor idea.
And who can miss the fresh tortilla stand?
We started our evening with the Appetizer Plate. It consisted of chile con queso, nachos, deluxe quesadillas, chicken flautas, guac, and sour cream. Trust me, this was such a handsome portion, that I could have just dined on this platter. But we decided to venture onto the next few courses.
 The Fajita and the Steak Burrito was our choice of entree. We opted for shrimp and beef as our choice of protein, for the Fajita, which was grilled with pepper and onion. Served with Mexican rice, pico de gallo, refried beans, sour cream cheese, lettuce, fresh tortillas, and guac.

The Steak Burrito is a handmade 12" tortilla stuffed with grilled and sliced steak and cheese, topped with spicy Hatch Green Chile sauce. It is served with green chile rice and charro beans. We have a soft corner for Green Chile at Chuy's ever since we attended their Hatch Chile Fest, earlier this year. 
 The dessert of dreams was their Tres Leches Cake. It was so huge that it was big enough to be a pillow.


And if that is not all, then the whole restaurant is like a treasure trove of Instagram-worthy walls. You cannot help but get happy, at this place. So if you are on the lookout for a new place to eat out in Overland Park, Kansas, how about Chuy's!
