KC-area restaurant, grocery, brewery updates in COVID-19: December openings, closing Joyce Smith, The Kansas City Star

This month we have the return of a Leawood restaurant that has been closed since March and more than a dozen new eateries, including several dessert options and doughnut stops. But a half dozen locally-owned operations are closing permanently.
