It was November 1967, and the British rockers were the opening act for The Buckinghams at the brand-new Shawnee Mission South High School.

Chicken restaurant inside a KC brewery has closed. What's next for the concept?

A restaurant known for its fried chicken has closed its operations inside a Kansas City brewery, but according to a social media post, it may not be the end of the business. Vine Street Chicken Co. , which served chicken wings, tenders and sandwiches, opened its restaurant inside Vine Street Brewing Co. (2010 Vine St.) in February and had hoped it could serve locals and visitors during the World Cup festivities in Kansas City this summer. But as of Nov. 7, Vine Street Chicken has flown the coop and left the brewery. “Thank you, Kansas City! Vine Street Chicken opened as an amenity for Vine Street Brewing Company, to help support KC during the 2026 World Cup,” the statement said on Instagram. “Our final day was Nov. 7.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vine Street Chicken (@vinestreetchicken) Vine Street Brewing co-founder and KC musician Kemet Coleman confirmed the departure of the chicken pop-up over text message.

For now, there is no food vendor at the site, but guests can bring their own food to pair with Vine Street’s beers. “As the

This Kansas City chef who runs a gourmet butcher shop loves gizzards and burgers

Thanksgiving is, without a doubt, the best food holiday on the calendar. It’s also chef Sarah Nelson’s favorite holiday. This is despite the fact that she is put to work on Thanksgiving, given her skill set. “I actually negotiated with my family this year a way for us to do just family gatherings on Thanksgiving, and then do an actual sit-down meal on Black Friday so I can actually enjoy it and not try to be catching up with family while I’m doing all the food,” Nelson said. The holiday is a favorite, she said, because it brings all the comfort foods she enjoys onto the table for one glorious day of gorging. She happens to have access to some of those foods, given that she runs a butcher shop and gourmet grocery store in the Northland with her husband, Louis Guerrieri, the duo that also used to run the Ombra restaurant before it closed in late 2024. Carne Diem just celebrated its second anniversary of being open in the Village at Briarcliff, providing its customers a whole-animal butchery of Missouri-sourced meats like Angus beef, lamb, duck and more. What it means to be a whole animal butchery is to

Kansas City region saw most tornadoes ever in 2026. ‘One after another, after another'

This year’s severe weather season in the Kansas City region is one for the record books. The National Weather Service confirmed that 39 tornadoes have touched down so far in the Pleasant Hill forecast office’s jurisdiction, which includes 37 counties across northern and western Missouri and seven counties in extreme northeastern Kansas. That breaks the previous record of 33 tornadoes set in 1967, according to data dating back to 1951 from the National Severe Weather Archive Display website . The next highest was 31 in both 2003 and 2004. On average, the Kansas City region sees 12 tornadoes a year, based on the data. 2026 tornado season Twelve of this year’s tornadoes touched down in the Kansas City metro area, which includes Leavenworth, Wyandotte, Johnson, and Miami counties in Kansas, and Platte, Clay, Jackson, Cass, and Ray counties in Missouri, said Eric Carothers, a meteorologist with the weather service in Pleasant Hill. The total would be 13 if Lawrence, just outside the forecast office’s jurisdiction, was included. “We just had a very active pattern through the spring, particularly April, May and June,” Carothers said. “We had a very progressive pattern where systems just kept moving through one after another, after

New Johnson County restaurant, sports bar opens. Burgers, beers, more

For 40 years, Brooksider has offered cocktails, beers and watch parties in its namesake neighborhood. The walls of 6330 Brookside Plaza have held festivities since 1985. Father-son duo Chuck and Jack Naylor, meanwhile, have owned the bar for about 14 years. But the pair added a new chapter to Brooksider’s book Monday, with the opening of its second location. This one is across state lines, though it bears the same name as its original location. Brooksider’s new space — 5001 Town Center Drive in Leawood — offers multiple levels of indoor and outdoor dining. Altogether, it seats 688 patrons. Customers can experience a more intimate setting by choosing to sit in the cocktail lounge-style section. That area aims to give a “date night” vibe, said general manager Ryan Proffitt, though it’ll still have some TVs to broadcast Chiefs games. (The menu will be consistent throughout the restaurant, too.) An outdoor patio has its own bar, fire pits, heaters and televisions so customers can sit outside as long as possible. Another interior bar neighbors two dart boards and a long, narrow sun room. An upstairs event space plans to open soon, though Proffitt said it’s not quite ready. “We’re shooting for
