We're going tomorrow to Springfield to see New Salem, and the ghose walk from the capitol and Lincoln Library and house. Is there anything else we need to see and do? Good places to eat rather than chains would be helpful, thanks!

Never been to Springfield.
I'm going to have a group of ten guys coming for a State Bowling Tournement.
I'm looking for some places to eat.
We will be staying at the Hampton Inn on Dirksen Pkwy.
Also any big shopping malls around there?
And places to drink?
