I have to admit, Kansas City is not the first place I would pick to visit, but I surprisingly really enjoyed myself in the City of Fountains. My three night getaway consisted of BBQ, drinks, dancing, and of course more drinks. Can’t complain!
When I first arrived, I was a little disappointed. The city was underwhelming crowded and it seemed that there was not much to do. However, after talking to some locals I soon discovered the more fun parts of town such as the Art District and the Power and Lights District. Side note: anytime I travel I often find that talking to locals is the BEST way to find out the best restaurants and things to do. No one knows their city like them, so it helps to take their advice.
The first night we ended up eating at a famous BBQ place called Arthur Bryant’s. No seriously this place is way famous! Celebrities such as Steven Spielberg and Barak Obama have been spotted eating here. I’m not a big BBQ person myself, but my friends definitely enjoyed it!
Luckily I had great weather the whole time and I was able to do a lot of walking and exploring over the course of four days. I enjoyed some great dinners and had a blast at this outdoor place that had live music, dancing, and too many bars to name. Kansas City Live was definitely the place to have some fun at!
Although I don’t picture myself ever returing to KC, I am very happy that I got to experience this artsy and foodie city. On to the next adventure!
