Ever wondered how Springfield, Missouri became the cashew chicken capital of the world? 🥢🥡 Woody, Janet, and Jay Stevens sit down with Ling and Wing Leong of the legendary Leong family to trace the incredible history behind Springfield-style cashew chicken. From their father David Leong surviving the fourth wave of D-Day at Omaha Beach to opening the iconic Leong's Tea House in 1963, surviving restaurant bombings, and catering for U.S. Senators at the Capitol, the brothers share unforgettable stories of resilience, culinary evolution, and Ozarks history.
