Devan’s (Double) Dozen: Burger Edition
From the paper-thin smashburger to the diminutive slider to the carefully constructed pub burger, I love cheeseburgers in all their glorious forms. As my list of Kansas City burgers conquered only grows longer, it felt like time to double down and return to the roots of “Devan’s Dozen” with a roundup of the best burgers in Kansas City from well-known hotspots, to must-try gourmet burgers, to the hidden gems you’ve never heard of.
FCS: Best of 2022
Every year brings its own path of discovery. 2022 was not only a big year for Kansas City but for me and my own attempts to be more of a tourist in my own city. Of all the new places and things I tried this year, these were my favorites. And so once again, I bring you my end of the year Fountain City Superlatives.
The City Board
Earlier this year, Hasbro Gaming and Top Trumps USA announced the release of a Kansas City Edition of Monopoly for the first time in over 25 years. As someone who loves this game and loves this city, I was so excited. But quickly excitement became disappointment as I learned about the nature of property placement in these city edition games. Yet still, I held out hope that this game would be a good thing for KC. With the release of Monopoly: Kansas City Edition yesterday afternoon, this is my first look at the board.
Floatworthy
Pi Day? More like Pie Yay! With Pi Day approaching on March 14 (3.14), I decided to write about my favorite piemaker in Kansas City, Easy as Pie. Ok, so I get that the holiday is not about THAT KIND of pie but in all fairness, every holiday deserves a signature dessert. Do you really need a reason to eat delicious, locally made, pie?
Irish I Had a Reuben!
Around a century ago, a hotel chef in Omaha fused together elements of Irish, German, Russian, and Jewish cuisine and then did the most midwestern thing possible - added salad dressing and cheese. Thus, the Reuben was born! As St. Patrick’s Day approaches, bars and restaurants across the city begin serving Reubens. However, for me, it’s a year-round love affair. In this piece, I detail five KC spots where you can grab a Reuben in March, and in the other 11 months as well.
