Pretend for a moment that you are new to Springfield.Downtown is a slightly eclectic mix of bars and shops, the south side a grid of sprawl with no rhyme or reason. What you need is a companion to show you the town, tell you where the good stuff is, introduce you to the right people. You need an expert.
That's where GO comes in.
We've assembled a must-know handbook of hints, hideaways and happy hours you need to make this city your own little kingdom. And because even we don't know it all, we enlisted some of our most trusted sources to give you their tips on making Springfield your own. If you're new, we welcome you with arms wide open. If you're native, we hope you find something here that helps you enjoy Springfield even more.
We know we did.
Read our tips, and then leave your own by commenting on this story (you can do it at the bottom of each and every page).
Reader Comments:
Wow! Are your proofreaders on vacation? “Rachel Ray” = Rachael.
“Justice Jeweler’s” = Jewelers’
“southwest Springfield (sometimes even in posh neighborhoods like Highland Springs or Millwood)” – Highland Springs and Millwood are both southeast, not southwest. Anyone who’s lived here knows the southwest side of town is hardly posh.
“Harter House on Wednesdays, the day their sale ad hits.” – All grocery ads hit Wednesdays. And there’s nothing special about their meat. Associated Wholesale Grocers provides meat to most supermarkets in town.
“Kai also whip up…” = whips
“… as thick as other place.” = places
