KC的生活非常美好。事實上，經常發生太多事情，以至於很難決定去哪裡以及嘗試什麼。

Life in KC is pretty delicious. In fact, there is often so much going on that it can be hard to decide where to go and what to try.

Something New

新東西

French Custard: Now your sweet treat can help benefit local causes such as food access, addiction help, or job training. French Custard in Brookside has introduced “token Tuesdays.” For each pint of custard that you purchase, you get to designate one $1 token to the mission of your choice. At the end of each month, the equivalent token donation will be made to each organization, and the one with the most tokens will receive space inside French Custard for a display the following month. 

法式蛋奶凍：現在，您的甜點可以幫助當地的事業受益，例如食物取得、戒癮或職業培訓。布魯克賽德的法式蛋奶凍推出了“象徵性星期二”。每購買一品脫奶油凍，您就可以為您選擇的任務指定一個 1 美元的代幣。每個月月底，我們都會向每個組織捐贈等量的代幣，擁有最多代幣的組織將在 French Custard 內獲得空間，以便在下個月進行展示。

Casual Animal: Calling all stout fans. (Me!) From October 31 – November 4, Casual Animal in Crossroads is hosting Stouterdays. The stoutfest will feature 11 dark beer selections from local breweries such as Big Rip Brewing, Border Brewing Co, City Barrel, Strange Days, Stockyards, and more. And just in case your partner or pals aren’t the stout fan you are, there will be additional events with cold brew, tarot, and brunch. Plus, candy and beer pairings to play up the sweetest part of this week’s holiday.

休閒動物：召集所有堅定的粉絲。 （我！）從 10 月 31 日到 11 月 4 日，Crossroads 的 Casual Animal 將舉辦 Stouterdays。此次烈性啤酒節將提供來自 Big Rip Brewing、Border Brewing Co、City Barrel、Strange Days、Stockyards 等當地啤酒廠的 11 種精選黑啤酒。如果您的伴侶或朋友不是您的忠實粉絲，我們還會舉辦其他活動，包括冷萃咖啡、塔羅牌和早午餐。另外，糖果和啤酒的搭配讓本週的假期最甜蜜。

Today’s Tip

今天的提示

If you are waiting to be seated at a restaurant and see open tables, don’t assume that you should already be seated there. Sometimes, those tables are already reserved, but usually, when you see a whole section not being used or a few tables/booths in each section that are empty, it is a result of not enough staff. Sure, the host could seat you at an empty table sooner than they told you, but there is likely no one assigned to that section, or your server will be overworked/overwhelmed.

如果您在餐廳等待就座並看到空著的桌子，請不要認為您應該已經坐在那裡。有時，這些桌子已經被預訂了，但通常，當您看到整個區域未被使用或每個區域中的一些桌子/攤位是空的時，這是由於人員不足的結果。當然，主人可能會比他們告訴你的更早讓你坐在一張空桌子上，但很可能沒有人分配到該區域，否則你的伺服器將過度勞累/不堪重負。

Opening

開幕

Frost: Infuse your week with a tropical ice vibe. Frost is now open after taking over the former Julep space in Westport. The new spot serves–you guessed it–frozen cocktails year-round. The menu features icy classics you expect and custom KC-themed concoctions, plus a few snacks. It is open from 11 a.m. to 12 a.m. daily.

霜凍：為您的一週注入熱帶冰雪氛圍。 Frost 接管了 Westport 的前 Julep 空間後現已開放。你猜對了，這個新店全年供應冷凍雞尾酒。菜單包括您期望的冰鎮經典菜餚和定制的 KC 主題混合物，以及一些小吃。營業時間為每天上午 11 點至 12 點。

Halloween: It’s here! By now you probably have your evening planned or will be spending it with the kiddos in your family, like I am. Just in case, here are some of my top picks for happy haunts. First, Third Place Lounge. If it feels like I mention it a lot, it’s because I do. The fact that they have an equal cocktail-to-mocktail list is the kind of inclusivity I want to see more of. Third Place Lounge will offer pumpkin carving at 8:30 p.m. to kick off a full weekend of Halloween and then Dia de los Muertos events. In Overland Park, Entity Lounge is hosting a costume contest party from 8 – 10 p.m. I haven’t visited, but writer Tiffany Watts has. Lastly, Fern Bar is throwing a combination costume contest and launch party for MoonShift Mezcal. Reserve your spot (at no cost) – DJ Boatss starts at 8 p.m.

萬聖節：來了！現在，您可能已經計劃好了晚上的活動，或者像我一樣與家裡的孩子們一起度過。以防萬一，以下是我精選的一些快樂出沒的地方。第一、第三位休息室。如果我感覺我經常提到它，那是因為我確實這樣做了。事實上，他們有同樣的雞尾酒和無酒精雞尾酒清單，這就是我希望看到更多的包容性。 Third Place Lounge 將於晚上 8:30 提供南瓜雕刻，為整個萬聖節週末和亡靈節活動拉開序幕。在歐弗蘭帕克，Entity Lounge 將於晚上 8 點至 10 點舉辦服裝比賽派對，我沒有去過，但作家蒂芙尼·瓦茨 (Tiffany Watts) 去過。最後，Fern Bar 將為 MoonShift Mezcal 舉辦一場服裝比賽和發表會。預訂席位（免費）—DJ Boatss 晚上 8 點開始
