Kansas City Eats: New Spots & Donut Fest | Lawrence News

Kansas City’s food scene is buzzing with new openings and big events this week: Waterbird Coffee returns downtown with fresh pastries, Brooks Family Farm Store debuts in Lee’s Summit with local meats, and Jade & Ember Munchery serves pan-Asian comfort food with a 30% discount until August 30. But not all news is good—Parlor, the Crossroads’ first food hall, closes August 22, shocking vendors and event planners. This weekend’s packed: The Ethnic Enrichment Festival celebrates 47 years at Swope Park with global flavors; Apparition Coffee and Friction Beer Co. serve specialty donuts; and the Heart of America Hotdog Festival benefits the Negro Leagues Museum. Sunday wraps it up with free DonutCon at Mr. D’s Donuts—no tickets needed, just sweet treats and fun for the whole family.
