I wonder if it has to do with the location on and near I-55 going up to Chicago and work at meat packing plants in Central Illinois. I had a hard time just writing about two restaurants because there are so many good ones. I'll do another post for Springfield and Champaign Mexican restaurants.Henny Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17954864745624157192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3225273652435185072.post-26970955517861996152007-08-25T09:08:00.000-05:002007-08-25T09:08:00.000-05:00There are so many Mexican places in this region!

I love it.<BR/><BR/>But it does make me curious - is it because of a large migrant-worker population?<BR/><BR/>The rural agricultural area I used to cover when I was a reporter in NY had a large migrant population, and I wonder if it is similar dynamic.<BR/><BR/>Interesting ...<BR/><BR/>And too bad my husband/child don't like Mexican. :(Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11342425698876916791noreply@blogger.com
