Kansas City is known across the country for their BBQ, there’s no doubt about that. In fact, you can even book your ticket on a tour that will take you by bus to the most delicious BBQ spots around. Pretty cool, right? While all of that is great, there is more to Kansas City cuisine besides burnt ends and slabs of ribs.

The next time you’re sitting around waiting to go to Olive Garden or some other franchise, consider one of these restaurants instead!

1. Manny’s Mexican Restaurant

Featuring your most classic Mexican dishes and white queso that is to die for. Someone's birthday? Get some delicious sopaipillas and a sombrero. Muy bien!


2. Café Gratitude

Featuring all vegan and vegetarian dishes this restaurant is sure to get you out of your comfort zone. You will leave feeling happy and healthy tummy!


3. Chez Elle

Featuring crepes galore! And did someone say Nutella danish? On top of it all is an incredible atmosphere. A definite must for fellow breakfast and brunch lovers!


4. Pizza 51

Featuring pizza, of course! Who doesn't love pizza? This place will keep you coming back for more. Say goodbye to delivery!


5. Jerusalem Café

Featuring savory Middle Eastern dishes. If you are a fan of hummus and pita bread, then this restaurant will be worth your time. You can also grab a bite from their food truck while shopping at First Fridays in the West Bottoms.

6. Doughnut Lounge

Featuring gourmet doughnuts and booze! Does it get any better than that? When planning your next date with the girls, think a good Old Fashion doughnut and a refreshing mimosa.

Some of these, among my favorites, are sure to be yours soon! Take your taste buds on a little vacation and explore something new. Enjoy!

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
