Broadway Butcher Shop aims to be a cut above
The lean times may be ending for Kansas City’s butchers. Broadway Butcher Shop is planning a soft opening this Wednesday at 3828 Broadway, most recently the temporary home of the adjacent Gomer’s.
“We wanted something that was good for the neighborhood,” says Jim Coley, the midtown Gomer’s wine director. “I love what Alex [Pope] is doing [at Local Pig], but there isn’t anything like that here.”
And so Coley and the folks at Gomer’s went out and found themselves a butcher.
“We went out and shook the trees, and Greg [Madouras] fell out,” Coley joked while standing in the nearly completed shop last Friday.
“Butchers don’t grow on trees,” Madouras fired back. “We cut meat.”
