However, I came back to Springfield for a visit and gave them a try - and it was absolutely worth the wait. I had their Fall Over soup -- chicken stock, homemade sausage, sweet potato and pear. Even my 3-year-old said it was one of her favorite soups she's ever had! I also tried the Aloha sandwich - toasted pretzel roll, Korean BBQ pulled pork, pineapple chutney, mixed greens, and tomatoes. Both of these sweet and savory dishes were incredible, and I'll likely stop by for lunch again before we head home next week. Aside from the food, this new location has much more space and brings a new energy with it. Many of us have nostalgia for the former location, but I like this one as well. I definitely recommend you to check it out!

I recently ran out of beans and came across Flora Roasting. Honestly, Springfield Illinois has little to offer in the way of specialty...anything. And what little shops they have, they're awful.

We put in our order for pick up, and we still had to wait a bit - I think we were there during peak hours. The inside was lively with cute decor and a menu board. They also had an ordering kiosk, which could either be good or bad depending on your tech skills. Our pick up order was: -Chicken Ala Max: cooking style similar to that of the famous Max's Restaurant, not dry and had a great crisp. It came with a housemade mang tomas sauce. If you don't like liver, I would be cautious of Mang Tomas since it is made from that! -Pinakbet: pretty standard, but it had bagoong cooked throughout it and that's all I could ever need. -Hopia: I am not a fan in general, but my mother-in-law liked it -Chicken Inasal: Not dry at all and great marinade over it! -Manila Sweet Pork Sandwich: This is the pinoy version of a Bahn Mi. This is a MUST ORDER. I have no pictures, just sweet memories. We waited to eat this when we got back to STL, which was less than a 2 hour drive and it was still good.

I don't like to give low ratings to local establishments, but sometimes it's just that bad. We were intrigued by the F*ck cookies and the interesting pastry flavors. $41 + tip was spent on 4 of the most tasteless cookies I have ever eaten in.my.life. Honestly, I'm a "for fun" baker at best and my teens thought my sugar cookies were/are heaps above these. The icing, which I feel may have had too much meringue in them to help set. They freaking cracked when biting into the flavorless cookie. I urge you to seriously rethink this recipe. I got the guava Danish, this was actually good. One son (the other bakery enthusiast) got the ube cheesecake. He will eat ALL THINGS ube. He said it tasted like nothing. And the other son got the black mass cheesecake and he didn't have any complaints, but he's also not a bakery snob like us. Very disappointed to spend that much money on really bad sweets.
