I got a fire burger and onion rings to eat in the car. The Fire Burger is a pepper jack cheese burger topped with grilled jalapenos and covered in buffalo sauce for $9.25. Both the burger is still very good and the and rings are good for made from frozen.

At lunch time the bartender is the only server. Table service can be eratic, so it is much easier to dine at the bar. I ordered the 1/3 pound Basic Burger and onion rings. The burger was great, much better than the one from Grandstand Burger earlier this month. I got the onion rings because I saw some on another customers plate and they looked great. They tasted great as well.

It was a cold snowy evening, but we went to supper at Buck Tui BBQ in Overland Park. The weather didn't seem to be keeping business away and nearly every table was full.

We arrived during happy hour and decided to share the appetizers: Butterscotch Wings, Chili Crunch Nachos, and Mini Garlic Ribs. At Happy Hour pricing they came to only $29. I like these dishes, but it doesn't quite live up to my expectations. The mini ribs were our favorite item.

The food has been good, but the menu has been a bit limited and the entrees which appeal to me have been combined with sides which did not appeal. At those prices, I would rather that I select which items go together. I'd reviewed the online menu again and found a couple of options which I was willing to try.

I ordered the $46 Cedar River Prime Flank Steak. It game with gigante beans, charred red onions, roasted delicata quash, blistered peppers and mojo verde sauce. The steak was good, but I didn't appreciate the sauce. I wish there had been more of the onions & peppers and less of the beans, which I actively disliked.

Linda had the $38 Grilled Rainbow Trout. It was herb & citrus stuffed and came with salt crusted farmer potatoes, braised fennel, Castelvetrano olives, ridicchio and gribiche sauce. She was happier with the mix of dishes.

We shared a caramel praline cheese cake which was quite good and a generous serving.

Wandering Vine prides itself on its wine selection and offers wine flights. I prefer hard ciders - none were available and none of the cocktails on the menu captured my fancy.

It was a lot of good food and we had plenty left to box and take home. We got the Triple Chocolate Brownie to go.

The burnt ends had several positive comments in online reviews and I expected to really enjoy them, but I would not get them again. The red curry tasted good, but the burnt ends were tough and tasteless. I had to request steak knife to cut the large cubes into bite size morsels. I really couldn't taste the beef with it coated in the curry. Also $32 was too much for this dish.

The table really enjoyed the Tour of Greece, a sampling of 4 traditional dips: hummus, spicy feta, melitzanosalata, & tzatziki, served with pita bread for only $9.99.

After dinner, we went to Allen Field House to watch Oklahoma State University play the University of Kansas Jayhawks. We were surprised to learn that star player Kevin McCullar Jr. was not suited up and playing tonight, but he has had a bruised knee and it was a night when he probably wouldn't be needed.

It has been a tough year for the OSU Cowboys and KU lead the entire game, winning by nearly 30 points. I'm sure it was hard for the television announcers to find ways to keep the game interesting and I bet they appreciated the Kansas City Chiefs offensive linemen attending the game. We learned later that they also visited the team in the locker room.
