No one said anyone was disgusted by the special menu, it’s just that most people expect “traditional” Asian food such as General Tso’s or sweet and sour chicken. This menu is very Asian, not what you’d find at most Asian places here.

I had mine done at a Meecy doc clinic on s National went fantastic. I don’t even think it cost over a couple hundred. That was 5 years ago though

I used to buy sandwiches there back in the 80's. Very nice hippie couple took good care of us.

LOTO is 1.5 hours away and the ocean is 13+ hours away.

I would do anything to go down there and tour it or drive around. Any advice?

Reply to comment by PinchePoderes in Studying abroad in South Korea this summer and want to start trying Korean food. Any good Korean places here? by [deleted]
do you mean Yi’s in Nixa? I used to work there, and I haven’t heard of another korean restaurant in Nixa. Unfortunately, they closed, but she did merge with Sushi Village on Republic Rd recently!

Man, wait till those politicians insulate themselves from any moral or financial failure and make you pay for it.

I forgot about that part one day. I had my sun-roof open and it had rained the day before. Water was still coming from that opening and I drove right under it getting water all in my car. Not a lot, but enough to make me question my intelligence.

If you want to go down there and just drive around, you can. Go down the Kearney entrance, there is an intercom right before you go in, hit the button. Security is going to answer, they usually just say something like "Underground Security" or "which building are you going to?". It really doesn't matter what the guard says, just say "Going to building 9" (you can use other buildings too, but that is just the building I go to the most so I say that) and they'll open the gate.
You obviously can't go inside any of the warehouses, but you can sort of just drive around down there if you want. Going later in the afternoon is probably easier because there is less trucks down there so there is less you have to watch out for. It's pretty cool to just look at imo.

Sandwich Scene. Golden Girl. Riksha. Farmer’s Gastropub. Harvest. Prairie Pie (and the pizza place inside). Zayka. To name a few I haven’t seen much of in here.

Did anyone get screenshots of that? Because the comments have long since been deleted.

This is rhetoric. The hotel of terror doesn’t fit in the City’s vision for daylighting/naturalizing the creek. Bear in mind, this project should actually be called “man-made creek” because that’s all it is going to create; ever since the creek was channelized and tunneled, the water table dropped beneath the surface and the creek only appears during storm water floods. But sure, spend millions for making a man made creek.
The City is going to spend +$40 million on this project. Anybody with neighboring property is going to see their property double in value. The project will revolutionize the image of downtown. Hotel of Terror does not fit into that image. The options for municipalities to get rid of unfavorable land uses: pay market value…or claim some street/city improvement and condemn. The latter is the cheaper.
I hope we get 1 more Halloween season with hotel of terror. I’ve never been, but it’s a Springfield staple.

Last year Carrie's had a Thai sauce they used for tater tots and I still think about it all the time. So good. They do a really great job, probably better than half the actual restaurants in Springfield

I've got a couple of greasy spoons for you: Taylor's across from the Mosque (it's cash only) and College Street Cafe on College just west of Kansas Expressway. The downside is they've got limited hours. Taylor's is only open 11-2 M-F and the Cafe is only open for breakfast and lunch Mon-Sat.

I got mine at Planned Parenthood. Awesome experience, cost around $1000 all told, but if that’s too steep I’m sure they have options. Highly recommend them for this!

Exactly you get what I mean. I know at the the end of the day it’s all just boxes and numbers being shifted around but it’s still amazing to me that humans have managed to utilize technology and computers to the fullest in the 21st century to move millions of boxes from one city to the other other side their country in under 24 hours with a pretty high rate of accuracy. The rapid rise of consumption and globalization that ties in with that is a bit unnerving (just due to the shear amount of CO2 emitted from cargo ships and planes let alone the manufacturing process). But at the end of the day like I said, it’s just cool that as a species we’ve come together to collaborate on these colossal boats or complex logistics chains to make everyday life happen. Really what it comes down to is that It’s the people I love not the billionaires reaping the profits off the backs of all our hard work. Sorry for the tangent.

There's a huge data storage facility down there. At the time that I worked down there St. John's had a huge off site facility located there.
