Here Are The 11 Dishes You Have To Eat In Kansas City Before You Die
Every city in America has its own iconic foods, but sometimes we aren’t always craving barbecue. It’s hard to believe, but there are people who live here and rarely eat it! For a city with one really iconic food item, it’s sometimes hard to feel like the others get their share of the limelight. For that reason, here’s a list of 11 dishes in Kansas City to eat before you die. Luckily, they are mostly not barbecue. Mostly.
Beignets are a special sort of treat, and Beignet (the restaurant) serves authentic Cajun food of many types. However, these pastries are always flying out the doors, and for good reason. They come in so many flavors!

If you're not a fan of oysters, there are so many other great dishes that Bristol has to offer. However, if you do like oysters, then you'll find this is one of the best places for them. They're delicious and served on a bed of ice with lemon. I wouldn't have them any other way!
