FYI if you watch for them you can catch international cultural events a few times a year. Different groups represented in Spfd will cook their native dishes. They just had one at the Oasis, sometimes they have International nights at the Morris Center (MSU) downtown that coincide with artwalks. I missed a Brazilian food sampling night there last Friday.

Also, I go to Innovative Dental. It’s like a machine, but they get you in and out with good service and free drinks and cookies!

Call (417) 269-4636 (INFO) the CoxHealth INFO-line. They can schedule you with a PCP right there on the phone, and let you know where you can find information about the other services you asked for that are in-network.

Just start on one end of Commercial St. and work your way to the other. Take a quick side trip to Queen City Soul Food just around the corner and you'll hit soul food, Pizza House, Lebanese, Peruvian, Italian, Cuban, Dutch, and Ruthies for 'Whatever Joe wants to make' night. Joe makes some weird stuff sometimes, but it always looks good. Lindberg's has great burgers and often will have an exotic burger of some sort on the menu. (gator tail about 80% of the time)
Also come spring Millsap Farm pizza club will be back in session. It's a farm out N Glenstone near Fellows Lake. They have clay wood fired pizza ovens and they do buffet style all you can eat pizza outdoors with a live band on Thursday nights in spring and summer. Uses ingredients they grow on the farm. I realize it's technically American fare, but some of their flavor combos are unique. A very tasty white sauce pizza with sliced white grapes stands out in my memory.
If you watch craigslist or facebook marketplace or look for ads at some of the local Mexican restaurants you can find a lot of people selling homemade tamales. Sometimes they're really good.
MSU has Carrie's Cafe and I think OTC has an equivalent. They're the restaurants run by culinary students. I remember Andrew Zimmer going to the SOTO one in Branson and raving about it. I confess that although I work here, I've never been to Carries. Something I have to fix this year. Their season starts in about a week and this is the menu:
My favorite go to for a quick meal in my neighborhood is Misaki (formerly Little Tokyo). Think Nakato's but a lot more casual, cheaper version of it. Tasty hibachi for cheap.

Before they put up the little flexible barriers, people would come to a complete stop at the turn on to 65SB from Chestnut and would back up traffic for MILES. Still happens from time to time but not as frequently.
Also glad I don’t have to make that drive anymore.

No idea what’s going on, but there’s so much police presence today. I saw 6 cops just doing speed traps on sunshine alone.

When they say the Main Street Bridge, what are they talking about? I don’t see a bridge anywhere near the Hotel of Terror.

I went with some friends and we ordered half a dozen different items to share and everything was fantastic. Can't wait to go back and try more.

Yeah, every movie there has a giant ass “if you use your phone after right now, we will kick you out” message. They take it seriously.

Sub Shop just off the northwest corner of Glenstone and Seminole. I love their sandwiches

Prusaslicer (built off of superslicer) just added tree supports in their recent alpha version. I'm excited because that's the only thing Cura had going over it, IMO.

Not a perfect analogy. Sometimes eminent domain is necessary. Such as ... say a highway or an interstate.
Today it only takes 4 hours to get down to little rock, or 1 hour to get down to Branson. I'm old enough that I remember a time that wasn't the case. I've to old timers and it was a several hours journey to get to Branson or table rock lake, and Little Rock took 8+ hours.
If you didn't have eminent domain, one landowner could completely stall a highway.
In this articles case, they want to improve the bridge and make the area more usable. They can't because of this building.

There must be. I could keep r/IdiotsInCars alive just with clips from my 2+ trips on 65 per day.

I'm confident they will, just expect it to take longer. Same thing happened with Jordan Valley, this is more or less a continuation of that.
It'll happen, it'll be great, but it'll take 20 years.

Ive not been there to eat in a minute but Leslies is sort of an authentic hidden latin american gem imo, also Bombay Bazaar is good and unique to go indian street food but ive never had a smooth or totally positive experience with the ordering and wait for food, so go with that caveat.

This trio of restaurants were just copycats of more successful restaurants in other cities. Bourbon & Beale and Guy Fieri's: menu, down to the plates/dishes they used. Hell, the french fries in their little baskets were straight ripoffs.
Taco Habitat reminded me of Torchy's down in Texas, and Hot Cluckers was Hattie B's.

Apartments absolutely do consider DTI, I’ve worked in apartments for 8-9 years and it’s ALWAYS been part of our criteria as a company. I’ve never worked in Springfield, but I have worked at 4 separate companies and a total of 6 communities.

That's crazy if you're already an established tenant and they won't accept transfer to any other property of theirs.
