To quote my friend Gay, “The brunch at bluestem is to die for.”
So you will certainly be missing out if you don’t take advantage of one of these wonderful meals. You will also get the added bonus of having some one else do the cooking and cleaning.
And as always if you know of a great Easter brunch or anything else in the KC food scene, you think I am missing, Email me

In Good Taste,
