Justus Drugstore
106 W. Main St.
Smithville, MO

It's this ideal location, paired with Justus' "make it from scratch" philosophy, that have made his year-old restaurant the apotheosis of locavore dining. On the menu this summer: the pig (naturally), served with a blueberry-ginger sauce and heirloom polenta from nearby War Eagle Mill.
