The Block

"The Block" takes viewers on a journey through Kansas City’s streets to get a sense of the people and cuisine ― the fabric of KC's neighborhoods. But this isn’t just a food show. There's history, culture, and unknown facts about Kansas City. You’ll go inside kitchens, see how food and drink products are made, and peek into of the lives of everyday Kansas Citians working in the service industry.
