It's happening!

Things To Do

If you're traveling to KC for the first time, we hope you get a chance to relax, unwind, and explore over the weekend. Enjoy the barbeque, play pickleball with old and new friends, and catch a stunning sunset at one of our many family-friendly parks. We hope you'll feel like you've come home.

The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art

4525 Oak Street, Kansas City, MO 64111

KC's iconic (and totally free!) art museum

Jack Stack Barbecue - Martin City

13441 Holmes Road, Kansas City, MO 64145

KC's famous BBQ (Fun fact: Nicole's short-lived modeling/acting career culminated in starring--very fuzzily in the background, mind you--in a Jack Stack ad!)

Novel Restaurant

1927 McGee Street, Kansas City, MO 64108
, 8162210785

Sneaking in a date-night in Kansas City? You've come to the right place! Enjoy Chef Ryan's creative take on meals from the US and around the world. (P.S. Our first date was here at Novel!)

Le Fou Frog

400 East 5th Street, Kansas City, MO 64106
, 8164746060

Nicole was surprised to find the BEST French food (in her humble opinion, even better than the fancier French restaurants in LA, and with lower-than-Los-Angeles-prices to boot!) in a disarmingly quaint little room in Kansas City. Also a great date night spot.

Ika Grill Sushi & Pan Asian

11725 Roe Avenue, Leawood, KS 66211

Our family's go-to for an affordable Asian sit-down meal! Sosho and Nicole have lost count of the number of times they have frequented this restaurant.

Minor Park Tennis Courts & Pickleball Courts

11477 Blue River Road, Kansas City, MO 64137

For long walks. For short walks. For pickle ball. For tennis.

Gezer Park

13251 Mission Road, Leawood, KS 66209

Nicole's favorite walking park! Meditative, peaceful, and inspired by and modeled after actual locations in Israel, it's a great park to unwind in and watch the gorgeous KC sunsets. Great for date nights and families with small children.

Jacob L. Loose Park

5200 Wornall Road, Kansas City, MO 64112

Arguably KC's most beloved park enjoyed by lovers, families with small children, etc.

Park Place

5270 W 116th Pl, Leawood, KS 66211

A public and immaculately manicured large grassy triangle hosting outdoor summer games (large jenga blocks, colorful wooden benches, cornhole, etc.) for visitors, and surrounded by the cutest little boutiques, eateries, and an ice cream shop. Perfect for families with small children.

Summer Moon Coffee

9127 Metcalf Avenue, Overland Park, KS 66212

If you like your coffee incredibly smooth, creamy, wood-fired, and on the sweeter side, visit Summer Moon for their sweet take on creative coffee conceptions!

Trader Joe's

4201 West 119th Street, Leawood, KS 66209

Everyone's Happy Place.
