A coveted restaurant space with a pretty patio in The Shops of Prairie Village will soon open as Penny’s, a fourth restaurant concept from Penny and Doug Mufuka, owners of Bamboo Penny’s, KC Thai, and Aqua Penny’s. Their newest concept will open in the space that housed Blue Moose and Gravity, featuring more signature dishes from chef Penny’s native Thailand, including some that are currently only seen as limited weekly specials at Bamboo Penny’s. Beverage director Jenn Tosatto is also working on a cocktail menu with a signature low-and-no alcohol cocktail section, in addition to a large selection of wine and beer. The couple, along with local concept design and development specialist Michael Werner, opened Bamboo Penny’s in Leawood’s Park Place in 2021, and followed that with Aqua Penny’s in the same shopping center earlier this year.
