Non-fair funnel cakes
A reader who hails from Rhode Island discovered a culinary obsession at the Kansas State Fair, and now he can't think straight: Funnel cakes. The reader asked if funnel cakes were available in any Wichita restaurants, and they are. IHOP stores across the country are featuring funnel cakes as a menu special through the end of August. And one other local restaurant keeps funnel cakes on the menu: The Burger Barn at 3302 W. Central, which serves the deep fried delights with powdered sugar or with other decadent toppings such as apple, cherry, strawberry, caramel and cream cheese. For more information, call 316-425-0443.
