No worries! I’m glad you actually referred it since I haven’t been to Tong’s in a minute. I’m happy to support other local businesses, the rest of our meal was great just as I remembered.

Ever since Thai Pepper closed. I literally seek the world, every nook and cranny to find that damn Crispy Duck. I love it!! I even went to Ozark and had Orange Duck Breast at The Finley, lol. But Thai Station is closest I found. Nicola’s is a bit pricey but it’s not bad either

Cesar’s Old Mexico - Try their tacos! Best authentic tacos w a bit of flair in town. Must try their Lengua taco, it literally taste like Pho that melts in your mouth. If you aren’t adventurous, their Pastor taco is extremely flavorful with chopped pineapples inside them.

El Champu Food Truck - Best Birria tacos!! It literally like a meaty grilled cheese. 🔥

Teamhj. Man. I literally went to Tong to get their Crispy Duck due to your recommendation but I was utterly underwhelmed (no offense). Even Ristorante Nicola’s Duck was better.

My favorite Thai Crispy Duck used to be at Thai Pepper, they had the best Bangkok Duck ever! I’ve even went to Thailand and nothing compared. But since they closed…

The best (Thai) crispy duck in Springfield is Thailand Station easily. Please go try and let me know what you think!

Their prices are not liquidation prices…. There were only 4 Dining table that caught my eye.. but they were still selling for $1200, $1346, $1499 and $1549… the problem is I wouldn’t pay over $800+ for any of those tables.

The salesman kept trying to get me to haggle and engage with him.. and even randomly lowered a price on a table set “based on inventory stock” without me even requesting it

Definitely not coming back.. very sketch

Easy. Cesar Old Mexico and El Champu Taco Truck.

Cesar got the best pastor and lengua I ever had! The lengua taco literally taste like pho on a tortilla.. simply phenomenal! And Champu has amazing Birria by far the best I had in town, so cheesy.
