Chef Baldee’s Pizza

Elotes Don Tono

836 N. Glenstone Ave., Springfield

Make Sure You Order: This perfectly British-themed spot (you can dine inside a big, red double-decker bus next to a charming red phone booth!) specializes in flaky pastries filled with delicious savory tastes. For a bold flavor, go for the Steak and Stilton Pasty, filled with potato, onion, tender steak and plenty of pungent stilton cheese.

 

Momma Mary’s Navajo Tacos
