| Cajun Night Johnny's Tavern - Lawrence |
First Wednesday of every month, 6:30pm more dates/times |
Lawrence | |
| When it comes to the bar scene, theme nights — Mardi Gras Night, ’80s Night, Goth Night — perhaps err on the lame side. Not so with the bimonthly Cajun Night at Johnny’s Tavern (410 North Second Street in Lawrence, 785-842-0377), which begins at 6 on the first and third Wednesday of every month... More >> | |||
| Farmers Community Market Border Star School | Every week Saturday, 8:00am-1:00pm | Plaza/ Brookside | |
One of Kansas City’s favorite warm-weather traditions is the farmers market. And though it’s not the largest or most popular, we suggest going to the Farmers’ Community Market in Brookside. All of the growers and vendors are local, and they provide certified-organic produce, meat, eggs, honey... More >> |

| Sylas & Maddy's Sylas & Maddy's | Daily | South Johnson County | |
| It’s hard to pick a flavor at Sylas & Maddy’s (11925 South Strang Line in Olathe, 913-393-3500), an ice creamery that first opened in Lawrence. We’re tempted to go the everything-but-the-kitchen-sink route with Gold Dust (a Snickers, Oreos and caramel concoction) or Da Bomb (which combines... More >> | |||

Anyone remember that gorgeous stained-glass dome that was once the showpiece of the old Harry Starker's on the Country Club Plaza? The restaurant, now called Starker's Reserve, is still on the Plaza, but the dome is now in the Northland dining room of this locally owned barbecue chain. (Four... More >> |

| Best Dinner Under $10 2008: Papa Lew's Soul Delicious Papa Lew's Soul Delicious | Mon., January 12 | East | |
It's neither the biggest soul-food buffet in town nor the fanciest, but Papa Lew's -- named for the restaurant's late founder, Lewis Lyman Sr., who opened his original restaurant at 18th and Vine in 1982 is definitely the best bargain in the city. For $9.99 (not including tax and... More >> |

| Best Meal in an Art Gallery 2008: Pi Gallery Pi Gallery | Daily from Wed., January 14 until Wed., January 14 | Midtown | |
When Split Lip Rayfield played at the Crossroads Kansas City outdoor theater this past August, the whole 18th Street neighborhood resonated with the sound of bluegrass music.

| Best Barbecue 2008 -- East: Beauchamp's on the Rail Beauchamp's On The Rail | Daily | Lee's Summit | |
Lee's Summit doesn't have a long tradition of barbecue greatness, but Joe Beauchamp and Brian Donigan's Beauchamp's on the Rail (the restaurant is close to railroad tracks) is putting suburban smoked meats on the map. A little more upscale than most area barbecue pits, the restaurant is both... More >> |
