The greatest $1 add-on in Kansas City

Life doesn’t give you many second chances, but the woman operating the cash register at the Shell Station on 75th Street is a bit more forgiving. Seeing my can of pop and receipt for a sandwich from Papu’s Cafe (604 W. 75th St.) — the Middle Eastern restaurant tucked inside the gas station — she told me that I should go for the platter because it’s only $1 more.
