The Kansas City restaurant scene has never been livelier. In this issue, our food writer, Jenny Vergara, shares the next-generation iconic dishes and drinks you should be ordering now. The feature interview is "New York Times" sportswriter and bestselling author, ("Our Boys: A Perfect Season on the Plains with the Smith Center Redmen", among others) Joe Drape, who talks about growing up in KC, the Chiefs, and how he became a sportswriter. For inspiration, we feature a renovated Westside home and garden that's an oasis in the city. And there's the recently renovated dining room of "INKC" columnist Merrily Jackson. Departments and columns include entertaining; expanded arts and culture coverage; dining out and dining in, including recipes and up-to-date info on KC's restaurant and bar scene.
