When locally owned Ingredient was looking to open a fourth location, it liked a spot that was across the street &mdash; but not in &mdash; the Kansas City Power & Light District.</p><p>&ldquo;More of the office workers are coming from the epicenter at 12th and Main, where we are, and north &hellip; so we&rsquo;re a great option for them,&rdquo; said Steve Kerner, who heads the local investment group behind Ingredient. </p><p> The gourmet fast-casual operation at 1111 Main St., which opened Monday, has customizable salads, pizzas, sandwiches, wraps and four daily soups. It offers breakfast, lunch and dinner from 6:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday.</p><p>The company plans a January opening for a Country Club Plaza location at 4807 Jefferson St., former home of Meiners Plaza Market. It also has locations in Lawrence (the original location opening in mid 2007), Leawood and Columbia. </p><p>Ingredient is very similar to The Mixx &mdash; from its concept of made-to-order behind a glass-fronted counter to its one-page menus &mdash; but they are separate companies. The Mixx, which opened in late 2005, has locations just south of the Plaza and in the Power & Light District.</p><p>&ldquo;We both have salads, but that&rsquo;s where the similarities end,&rdquo; Kerner said.</p><p>Jo Marie Scaglia, owner of The Mixx, declined to comment. </p><p><strong><span class="subhead">At Park Place</span></strong></p><p>Leawood&rsquo;s Park Place will have three new tenants:</p><p>&bull;Bella B&rsquo;s Boutique and Bella Bambino &mdash; sister stores &mdash; will open at 11555 Ash St. on Nov. 19. </p><p>Bella B&rsquo;s is relocating from Overland Park.
