Now this is something special and you have your fellow PTKC'er and board member, Mike Sugnet, to thank! Mike arranged with Bruce Winter, aka Melinda Ryder, to take us on a private tour of her exhibit "Arrive as a star, leave as a star" at the Museum of Kansas City on Saturday, June 14 at […]
Now before we chow down at The Cheesecake Factory smorgasbord (I see you drooling, Doug!) next Monday, we're gonna calm down a little. And, that leads us to a really good casual Asian restaurant called Spices in North Kansas City. There's a lovely menu full of Asian Fusion and Thai cuisine AND a full bar. […]
Now a couple of things about this Denny's on Shawnee Mission Parkway. First off, the wait staff absolutely loves us! Second, they give us a private room. Pretty cool, huh? Sure, it's not haute cuisine but that doesn't matter. There's plenty of reasonably priced breakfast/brunch dishes on the menu. We usually have a great crowd […]
I've never been to this restaurant but anyplace named "Jumpin" has me intrigued! Better yet, noted, late New York Times food critic, Craig Claiborne, swore that farm-raised catfish is the finest freshwater fish in North America.

Monthly Board Meeting for PTKC. All members are welcome to attend. Plus, there's food!
Ah, the appeal of Pegah's in Shawnee. Sure, the food is pretty darn good and plentiful.

But the real charm of the place is when our favorite waitress snarls at us, "Hey […]
30 years ago, Missie B's opened as a gay owned and operated piano/karaoke bar. Since that humble beginning it's become a leading gay KC hangout with special entertainment and drag shows. It's not just a place to grab a drink, it's an experience! So, join your fellow KCPT'ers to celebrate the end of the week […]
A sad, very sad riff on the opening song from the musical, "Oklahoma." Yeah, I had a serious crush on Gordon MacGrae who played Curly in the movie version. "We're watchin' two movies in Leawood. We're watchin' two movies in Leawood. There's popcorn a-plenty and much to imbibe.....just don't let Jim's snoring disturb this great […]
So, first of all, who doesn't like cheesecake here? Anyone? Anyone? Now what happens when said cheesecake is preceded by an amazing menu rife with all kinds of spectacular dining options!? I mean holy, moly! It takes 10 minutes to scroll through the Cheesecake Factory's menu! So, that's all I'm gonna write about this place. […]
