INMAN, Kan. - Hamburgers, fried chicken and artisan breads are among the menu choices at eight restaurants determined to be the "most iconic" in Kansas.

The Kansas Sampler Foundation announced the list as the "8 Wonders of Kansas Cuisine."

The restaurants are Bobo's Drive In in Topeka, Brookville Hotel in Abilene, Cozy Inn in Salina, Crawford County Fried Chicken, Free State Brewing Company and WheatFields Bakery Cafe in Lawrence, Guy&Mae's Tavern in Williamsburg, and Hays House 1857 Restaurant&Tavern in Council Grove.

Foundation director Marci Penner said her organization works to preserve and sustain rural culture. She said the cuisine picks weren't just about having restaurants compete, but to showcase what Kansas has to offer so people will want to travel to the state.
