Step Up to the Plate, Kansas City!: A Feast of Local Legends and Legacies is a collaborative effort of many people like Mary Don, who love Kansas City and love to share the city’s finer points, as well as their favorite recipes.  Each also shares their secret ingredient for success in life. 

Kansas City is in the heart of America, both literally and figuratively.  The people who made Kansas City what it is know that it is far more than fly-over country.  Stop by and visit our great city through the eyes, and stomachs, of some of our most famous residents.  Kansas City is well-known for its Bar-B-Que, its fountains, its championship-winning sports teams, and its own brand of music.  And we all love to eat!
