Come along with me as I check out Adriano's Pizza Napoletana in Springfield!
To quote Cookie Monster: “C is for cookie, that’s good enough for me!” @dirtydoughspringfield had their soft opening last night, so I swung by to check out what’s happening with all these cookies!
Dirty Dough specializes in cookies that are stuffed with all sorts of tasty goodness! They will offer a weekly menu of cookies but the cookies I’m about to run down are the signature cookies that will always be on the menu. Plus they also be opening their drive thru, so you can get your cookie fix without leaving your car!
✨Stuffed Chocolate Chip, with milk chocolate and semi sweet chocolate chips
✨The Reverse: fudge filling wrapped in a chocolate cookie, then wrapped again in a peanut butter cookie with a chocolate drizzle
✨The Brookie: combination of a brownie and chocolate chip cookie filled and drizzled with caramel
✨The Raspberry Toaster Tart: sugar cookie filled with raspberry jam and topped with icing and sprinkles
✨Cookies and Creme. Vanilla cookie loaded with oreo cookie chunks and white chocolate chips, stuffed with creme filling and topped with icing and oreo crumbs
Everyone at my house, including my sister and niece dug into this box of cookies and cured every ounce of any sweet tooth we had! My two favorites were The Reverse, as I am a lover of peanut butter, along with The Brookie, because who wouldn’t love a cookie/brownie combo?!
They plan to have a grand opening in July, but as of yesterday they are ready for your business! Open Mon-Sat 10am to 10pm & 10am to 9pm on Sun!
📍2515 S Campbell Ave Ste 100

Come along with myself, @blakehaynestv and @keepingupwithkashhhh for a killer meal at @big.whiskeys !
✨Drinks: the John Daly is sweet tea whiskey & lemonade, strong with a touch of sweetness! Also, the Pina Colava with coconut rum, red berry vodka, lime juice, blended with strawberry puree, the ultimate summer drink!
✨Roman Empire Dip: Tons of cheese topped with pepperoni, marinara and served with bread sticks, the ultimate pizza dip! Savory, cheesy, plus the bread sticks work perfect for the dip!
✨Reuben Eggrolls: Eggrolls stuffed with corn beef, sauerkraut, and cheese, with 1000 island dressing to dip! I love a good eggroll, plus a Reuben is such a classic sandwich, so combining the two is only natural!
✨Sesame Shrimp Nachos: The classic Boom Boom shrimp on top of wonton chips, smothered in sweet Thai chili sauce, toasted sesame seeds, red peppers, Thai chili oil, red cabbage and queso!
✨ Kick Ass Greek Salad: Arugala, spring mix, tomatoes, cucumber, Kalamata olives, onion, all tossed in Greek dressing and finished with feta cheese. THIS, this didn’t last long at the table folks!
✨Korean Fried Chicken Sliders: Crispy fried chicken tossed in gochujang sauce and drizzled with Thai chili sauce, topped with red cabbage and shredded lettuce. I am a sucker for all things Gochujang, and these didn’t disappoint. Had sweetness with a bit of heat, super tasty!
✨Milano Burger: a tasty burger topped with provolone, arugala, and a black truffle aioli. I love a good savory burger, adding truffle oil is something I have had on a burger, but the aioli was a great touch!
✨Cuban Crunch: Ham & pork layered with zesty mustard, and crunchy pickles. I love a good amount of mustard on my Cuban, with a nice crisp pickle, I may or may not have stolen half of this for my lunch today!
✨Cream cheese churros served with vanilla ice cream was the perfect way to end the meal. Plus they have a dessert cocktail, the Drunken Elephant, which is their play on a
A large plate of sesame chicken from Hong Kong Inn, do I really need to say any more?

I seen a fun discussion about food in media. People’s favorite scenes in movies or tv that revolve around food somehow, like the food fight scene in Hook, or the BLT w/egg in Spanglish!
For me, there is one scene that reigns supreme, the steak, eggs, and mashed potatoes from Twister! I was 12 when I first seen it and man it always stuck with me! So what is your favorite food scene from a movie?
Street tacos from El Monarca in Nixa makes for a great meal! 📍312 N Massey Blvd, Nixa. #417foodist #417land #417local #elmonarca #nixa #nixamo #streettacos🌮 #asadatacos #chorizotacos #carnitastacos #pastortacos #tacosarelife🌮 #tacostacos #feedmetacos #feedmetacosandtellmeimpretty #mexicanfoodrecipes #mexicanfoodlove #ʜᴏʀᴄʜᴀᴛᴀ #chipsandqueso #chipsanddip
2023, what a year! I can’t wait to see what 2024 brings!
Go grab some great food and drinks to celebrate the 2nd anniversary of Casa Bella Mexican Cuisine! #417foodist #417food #casabella #sgfmo #molcajete #spinachcreamsauce #cantarito #mexicanfoodlover #micheladas🍻 #chipsanddip #guaco #springfieldmo #417local #carnitasnachos #porknachos #carnitasburrito #grilledsteak #grilledchickenbreast #hotstonebowl #rancherosauce #mexicanfoodislife
Today is the 2nd anniversary of @casabellarestaurant1 ! Myself and Billy G stopped in for dinner and dived into delicius food and drink!
✨We started with beverages! Y’all know me, I love a good Michelada and theirs didn’t disappoint. They also brought out a cantarito, that had the perfect mix of tequila and citrus flavors was excellent!
✨Carnitas nachos were up next. Tortilla chips topped with large chunks of pork, cheese, pico, and onions. If you are a lover of carnitas and creamy cheese, you gotta check these out!
✨Molcajete Casa Bella. I am a lover of a good molcajete, and a lot of places all out their own twist on them. It’s loaded with steak, chicken, shrimp, poblano peppers, onions, cheese, pineapple, and ranchero sauce. It’s the perfect mix of sweet & savory. Adding the pineapple is a great addition with all th richness that is packed into that pipping hot stone bowl!
✨Poblano Burrito: carnitas, rice, and beans stuffed into a flour tortilla and topped with spinach cream sauce, roasted corn, and poblano peppers. That spinach cream sauce is rich and stands out more than almost any sauce I have had at Casa Bella. I can see why it’s such a popular dish!
Go visit Sergio and the team at Casa Bella to celebrate their 2nd anniversary! They have always been such a great addition to the food scene in Springfield. Don’t forget to also visit Jimmy and the crew at the @casabellaonbattlefield Battlefield road location as well!
📍4610 S Campbell Ave

What a spread folks, what a spread! I mentioned a few days ago about how good the sous vide tri tip was at @eatpiccolo but you know we be eating much much more while visiting!
✨The Italian Nachos are a pile of wonton chips covered in Alfredo, grilled chicken, tomatoes, basil, pepperoncini, and a balsamic reduction drizzle. They are crispy, they are crunch, they are bliss with each bite!
✨The baked spaghetti bolognese is an absolute mountain of pasta! It is topped with the D’Arpino marinara and meat sauce, and baked in mozzarella. When I say there is a layer of cheese on top, I’m talking like a THICC layer of that baked mozzarella 🤌🏽! This dish could easily feed two people, no problem.
✨The chicken Parm is my wife’s go to dish from Piccolo. Fried chicken breast topped with marinara, and that always great provel cheese! Plus the side of Alfredo gives you the best of both worlds, marinara and Alfredo on one plate!
✨The Bella chocolate cannoli is something that we always leave room for! It’s literally the perfect way to end a meal anytime you visit Piccolo!
Even besides the main dishes and appetizers, the side salads, the bread sticks, and of course my teenager son will eat his weight in their pizza, every dish is plated to impress. The food is outstanding, the staff is always super friendly, and the atmosphere is always welcoming! Go visit Steve & Cassie and have a great meal!

I had the pleasure of getting an “under construction” sneak peek of Thai Express new restauant Simply Thai!
Sous vide tri tip at Piccolo, a MUST!
Last night I ventured into Downtown Springfield to check out one of the 417’s newest spot, @thevaultspringfield ! The Vault has revamped the space the once housed Riad, and is serving up some tasty grub for you to munch on!
✨Seafood grilled cheese: Lobster and Crab with Pepper Jack Cheese, lettuce, and tomato smashed between two pieces of Grilled Sourdough served with French fries.
✨Wicked Hot Cheesesteak: Grilled thin-sliced ribeye steak or grilled chopped chicken breast, grilled chopped onions, sliced jalapeno peppers, hot cherry peppers, and melted provolone and mozzarella cheeses, served inside a hearth- baked hoagie roll with a side of fries.
✨Beer Cheese Mac & Cheese: Rich creamy beer cheese sauce over cavatappi noodles topped with toasted breadcrumbs. Plus you can add grilled or breaded chicken.
✨Gator Bites: Bite size pieces of battered and fried Alligator served with Louisiana Tartar Sauce, Spicy ranch, or remoulade. These tasty little lads come from Express Foods, so you know they are going to be good!
✨Garlic Parm Wings & Umami wings.

I have returned to @therealpurpleburrito ! It’s been quite a while since I have dined in at Purple Burrito, but man oh man was that food still kickin’!
✨XL Loaded Fries: crispy fries topped with Al pastor, Beans, cheese, pico, sour cream, and guacamole! These loaded fries are served in a pizza box and can feed multiple people, easy!
✨ Asada tacos with beans & rice. Drizzle some of that famous sweet and spicy salsa, plus you cannot forget the spicy carrots to really set this meal off right!
✨Fish Tacos: crispy fried fish topped with cabbage, cheese, pico, and that special Purple Burrito sauce. These are the true OG fish tacos I used to eat back in the day! They are fully loaded, and are super flavorful!
If you haven’t been to Purple Burrito in a while, or have never been at all, they literally have everything! Tacos, burritos, Tortas, taquitos, quesadillas, even sweet pineapple tamales! Go visit Juan Carlos, Ricardo, and Alex, for a great meal!

Leave it to the folks at El Paraiso Mexican Kitchen to always be bringing the heat with new menu items! We stopped by to check out a couple, along with a couple adult beverages!
✨ The Seafood Tower: this is the ultimate way to consume ceviche folks! Torre De Mariscos is a ceviche that is layers of scallops, shrimp, fish, octopus, red onions, cucumber, that has been marinated in lime juice and then they top it all with their house made seafood sauce. Grab a tostada, layer with with the seafood, hot sauce, and enjoy!
✨ Besitos El Paraiso: these are deep fried jalapeño peppers stuffed with cheese and shrimp, a kicked up jalapeño popper! Served with queso & guacamole. What I really liked about these, was that they do leave some of the veins and seeds in the jalapeño, so there is still some good heat added to the popper!
✨ Coco Feliz Margarita is a mix of pineapple, coconut rum, and orange juice. The rim had a good amount of coconut on it as well!
✨ Ocean Margarita is a mix of Blue Curaçao and lime. Check out those color contrasts!
With two locations, one in Strafford and the other in Downtown Springfield, you are never too far away from another meal at El Paraiso Mexican Kitchen!
📍305 E Chestnut St, Strafford
📍610 W College St, Springfield

I have worked with a lot of restauant owners and chefs in the last four years. I always ask each one the same question, “when you’re not working in your restauant, where do you like to dine?”
It makes for great conversation, as it has always interested me to hear what they enjoy eating when they are not feeding us! So, where do you like to dine? Tell me in the comments!
