Wichita is deeply rooted with many unique cultures. Through the years, the city has been a cultural hub that fused traditions and flavors. The diversity has made international dining a popular part of our local food scene. Let’s cover how to eat around the world in Wichita.
Nearly 400 restaurants, food trucks and other food vendors in the area account for the eclectic international offerings we are fortunate to have. The beauty of it is, they all have their own style, recipes, fusions and takes on dishes that create opportunities for us to try something we may have never had before. Whether you consider them “authentic” or close enough to what you’d find in a native country, that’s for you to decide. What I do know is our food scene is incredibly diverse, reflecting a modern-day population of people who want to share their culture and love of food.

Eddy,
This is the kind of article that really pulls it all together for me. Even though I read the reviews of restaurants all the time and try to visit as many as I can, being able to see all of the various food cultures pulled together in one spot is what really helps me appreciate how fortunate we are here in Wichita to be able to choose from so many different kinds of food. It also helps me consider places I would have never thought of visiting because I didn’t realize it was a different culture than just Asian, Mexican, etc. Thanks for all your hard work!!
Wade
hmmmmmm I wonder if we could get the city council to do an Eddy Appreciation Day??
