Ethnic Eats Travelogue

Ethnic Eats is one of MAM’s SIGs. It meets monthly to explore the many flavors around Kansas City. We try to hop around the metro, north, then south of the river, then jumping back and forth across state lines, to give members all around the metro better driving opportunities.

PS — If you have any favorite foodie places not listed below, please contact me!
