Discover Independence
If you've never been to Kansas City or any of the surrounding cities, get ready to be dazzled by the fountains and the barbecue. The Kansas City barbecue tradition has been going strong for nearly 100 years. However, vegetarians and fans of other cuisines need not despair. The large immigrant community in and around Kansas City has brought a delicious variety to this region, so don't be surprised when you find great Italian and German food. Finally, consider taking a Barley Bus tour, or check out the terrific Kansas City microbreweries for a delicious local brew, a burger, or a big basket of waffle fries.
