However, I needed to post here for my other fellow Illinoisan (whose username is eluding me at the moment), that I found Smithwicks in the suburbs. It was at a new place called The Fresh Market. We have a couple out here now that both went up in the last year. Dunno if there are any in Rockford area, but if you are willing to make the trip, you can find one in Geneva at the Geneva Commons on Randall Road just a bit south of Route 38.
