First Trip to KC in Five Years. What to Do/See/Eat?
 

New restaurants, sights, attractions? Has the weather changed in Olathe?

My 15 yr old son is along for the ride

Q39

Probably something cool at Union Station for the kid. Science City is a blast.

Food:
Q39 or Joe's
Lidia's
Grunauer
Vietnam Cafe

Attractions:
WWI Museum
Negro Leagues Baseball Museum (Jazz museum if that interests you)
First Fridays (obviously if you will be here on a first Friday)
Union Station

Power and Light District if you haven't experienced that yet. Also the revamped Kaufman stadium.

Oh and for non BBQ please go to Pig and Finch and order the short rib grilled cheese, espresso rubbed pork shoulder and the greek burger, and share amongst yourselves.

Swope park at 1 am is supposed to be lit

Actually the Indian Creek Trail is now the place to go.

The Oliver is also a very hot new restaurant on the Plaza that is really, really good. Their brunch is fantastic.

I'll be up Friday for a lunch or 3. Talked to a friend of mine here in Atlanta and he recommended Q39 too...

So Jackstack, Q39 and 1 more spot, where should I hit?
