The Fold Opens in the Crossroads

KC Daily

The Fold, a new American dining concept focused on seasonal ingredients and thoughtful hospitality, is now open in the Crossroads.

Deep Roots: The Fold opened at 1830 Walnut St. inside Corrigan Station, the former home of Corvino Supper Club. The Fold was opened by restaurant veteran Todd Richards, and partners Amanda Accurso and Brandon Sharp of Roots Seasonal Cuisine in Lee’s Summit.
A Taste of the Crossroads: The menu focuses on contemporary American flavors using seasonal ingredients. Expect dishes like Potato Gnocchi, Squid Ink Bao Buns, Game Hun, and more. The Den is coming soon: a late-night cocktail bar.

The Fold is open 3-10 pm, Tuesday through Sunday. Get your reservations HERE.
