I was asked 16 questions about my neighborhood for Folio’s Annual Manual edition. Until the magazine drops on Tuesday I will list a question, with my answer, each day. (John, this one should be positive.)

What is the best restaurant in Springfield?
Nosh.

My initial pick was the Main Street Bakery. But then I started thinking… Main Street is a great little place to hang out and grab some breakfast. Bite-for-bite I think the new Nosh menu beats Main Street hands down. Also I didn’t want to point people to a restaurant that’s been closed for 4 months. I hear when Main Street opens again, they will have beer.

Here were my other options. Besides fast food, anything I am missing?
Epicurean - closed
A-Z Sandwiches - never been there (more on this later)
Carl’s - never been there
Champs - never been there
Ole - good, but Nosh wins on ambiance
