    Touch

    Touch - 5

    1620 E. Republic Road - Springfield (Southside)

    I'm a sucker for a bargain and Touch has that sick early bird prix fixe thing. And Mondays have great wine deals. It's the perfect excuse for me to look forward to the beginning of the week.

    Kai

    Kai - 5

    306 S. Campbell Ave. - Springfield (Downtown)

    My fiance and I went to Japan this summer and since then, I've been hung up on all things Japan-related, food being number one (I would have written "number one" in Japanese but the only thing we walked away from the country knowing how to say was, "make it a double, please." Seriously). Anyway, I have perused the menu and it looks amazing. Cannot wait.

    Pappy's Place

    Pappy's Place - 5

    943 N. Main Ave. - Springfield (Northside)

    I love a dive bar. And I love cold beer. Our fearless contributor Philip Dickey set out to find the coldest beer in town and this was his winner. Bring me to your leader.

    Greenways Trails - 0

    1923 N. Weller - Springfield (Northside)

    Coming from a gigantic city (Chicago) I often missed having access to beautiful, natural areas. Now that I'm here, I cannot wait to run on the trails, walk through the parks and camp in the wilderness. And now is the perfect time of year to tackle it all.

    Bambino's Cafe

    Bambino's Cafe - 5

    1141 E. Delmar St. - Springfield (Northside)

    I keep hearing how delicious and affordable this place is -- and the happy hour drink specials ain't nothing to sneeze at either. This is the absolute wrong thing to be working on when you're hungry, by the way.

I don't know about you but I'm counting down the days until I can hang out doors, sip a martini and soak up the world around me. Until then here is my Play list,
