Kansas City

So, I will be flying to Kansas on 29th, for 2 weeks, for a work related course on Ft. Leavenworth. Is anyone in that area / KC? Any restaurant or shopping suggestions? I've been working overseas here in Germany for a LONG time, so I'm looking forward to the short trip back to America (#1, Gold Medal!).

Where are you staying?

I'll be staying on Ft. Leavenworth in the hotel that is on post. I'm flying into KCI on the 29th and will pick up my rental car there, then drive to Leavenworth. I'll be in the area until Feb 11th, then back to Germany.

I haven't lived in the area in awhile, so someone like Punk'n will have to help you out a bit more. Just prepare to leave Leavenworth for any sort of fun. The base is like any base, but the city of Leavenworth is a shithole.

KC is like the chain restaurant capital of the US... Eat your way through!

Leavenworth is far away and there's nothing to do there. But if you're in the city, drink in Westport, not Power & Light. Eat at local places, not chains. And try the BBQ. I like Jack Stack's the best personally, but Oklahoma Joe's is supposed to be amazing too.
