Here’s an article that appeared this week in the New York Times about none other than Springfield’s cashew chicken. When I first moved up here my freshman year of college, one of the first things I learned about Springfield was it’s love for it’s “world famous” cashew chicken … and the fact that, as this article points out, nearly every single restaurant in town serves it.
Oddly enough, it was less than a year ago when I tried it for the first time. I now eat it pretty much at least once a week!
