Good for the Belly

With its menu full of Mediterranean and American specialties, Café Cedar (2 East Second Street in Parkville) already celebrates culture. Today, however, the part of the restaurant’s heart that belongs to the Middle East gets priority. Patrons can fill their own bellies while ogling the gyrating torsos of local belly dancers, from whose hips and exposed navels sparkly items jitter and dangle. Curves and Hors d’oeuvres, a free belly-dance showcase and bazaar, lasts from 3 to 5 p.m. Call 816-505-2233 for more information.
