5 Food & Drink in Crossroads That You Shouldn't Miss

August 24, 2021 Trinity Boughner

The home of swing and bebop for some, "The City of Fountains" to others, Kansas City is different things to different people. Music enthusiasts are drawn to the jazz clubs and old haunts of famous musicians such as Charlie Parker and Count Basie. With more fountains than Rome, there is ample opportunity for scenic strolling from fountain to fountain. Stop along the way to discover interesting neighborhoods and browse through eclectic shops. Families are particularly attracted to the city because of its child-friendly events and venues. Science City features hands-on exhibits including a mock television studio where kids can deliver a weather forecast, while the Zoo houses impressive African and Australian exhibits plus an IMAX Theater. The city's museums cover everything from the history of jazz music to a celebration of African American baseball players. Once a trading post for pioneers heading to the Western United States, today Kansas City is a burgeoning metropolis with activities and attractions for visitors of all ages and interests.

A friend and I took the distillery tour and learned some lesser know Kansas City history in addition to the process for of the Tom's Town's different liquors. I discovered I like good vodka and gin and my friend discovered a new whiskey to love. Nicole was a great tour guide. She added bits of fun to the tour and was great answering questions.
