Ziggie's Cafe, Springfield

Thirty years of ample portions at Ziggie's Cafe have established the restaurant as a local fixture. It's not just the portions that are ample—the variety, too, is nearly mind-boggling. Savory chicken and seafood entrees present dinner patrons with options, but a menu that also includes quesadillas, sandwiches, burgers, and breakfast fare makes the eatery a veritable grocery store, but if each ingredient were cooked into its final state instead of yearning, longing, hoping to be lifted off a shelf.
