Here’s another amazing Kansas City cafe review! This one is near and dear to my heart ~ I know the owner!!! I also know the barista! I feel like a celebrity.

I have literally tried EVERYTHING. Everything except eliminating coffee. Oh sure, I went decaf for a while, but it really didn’t work, and I just couldn’t bring myself to completely cut ties from my … Continue reading Cafe Love ~ MILDRED’S.
It’s likely you’ve been to the Cafe Europa in Brookside, if you live in Kansas City, and if you can afford such luxuries.

I’m sitting at the bar this morning, enjoying a gorgeous decaf cappuccino, … Continue reading CAFE EUROPA.

this is a sweet little find. pronounced “sah~vaaaah”, it’s a somewhat hidden, unassuming gem, but keep looking for it ~ it’s a very quiet, lovely place. off the beaten path, this champagne bar is past blanc burgers, past californo’s, keep walking, keep walking, and it’s this cute little place on the east side of pennsylvania street, just down from port fonda. we went there … Continue reading ça va ~ a champagne bar.
