So, a couple of months ago I took a trip to Salt Lake City to attend a concert. My road trip buddy this time out was one of my oldest friends, and someone I haven’t traveled with in a couple of decades. She wanted to attend the concert as well, and she was in desperate […]

On the Road: The Lot / à la carte (Bend, OR)
onA couple of things to apologize for today. First of all, I’m WAY behind on my posts again. Secondly, a lot of the upcoming posts will be road posts, so I guess I should half-heartedly apologize to those of you who think I spend too much time writing about places that aren’t local. That having […]
On the Road: One Eyed Sisters Coffee Trailer (Bend, OR)
onAre any of you fans of Anthony Bourdain? I am. I may have even mentioned it before. I guess it doesn’t matter, pretty much everyone has watched some travel TV, yeah? You notice that often when the host gets to where he’s going, there’s someone there to drag him around. Sometimes a friend, sometimes a […]
On the Road: Spork (Bend, OR)
onWe’re going out of order here. In my last post, I described on of the great meals of my life. However, that wasn’t the first thing that happened when I arrived in town. I had a few hours to kill, which I planned to spend up in the mountains taking pictures of the forest area […]
On the Road: 5 Fusion & Sushi Bar (Bend, OR)

Bang on the Wall Burgers
onOkay, this is going to be such a quick one that usually I’d go back for a second visit to pad it out, but it’s a means to an end so bear with me. Tonight from 5-8 pm is the second weekly installment of Food Trucks in the Park at Ann Morrison Park downtown, courtesy […]

onThe sandwich is a wonderful thing. From the majestic simplicity of the grilled cheese or the PB&J to the iconic BLT, torta and Cubano, cramming stuff between two hunks of starch results in everything from comfort food to art form. The Valley certainly has been seeing a boom in sandwich joints lately, and while many […]
Bowld Over
onYesterday, I wrote a review of a new truck on the local street food scene called Mad Mac (spoiler alert: I wasn’t a fan). What I didn’t mention is that the same owners brought two trucks to Boise when they moved here. That’s right, the mac and cheese truck has a sister truck that I […]
Mad Mac
onAh Spring, when the food trucks are in bloom. The Southern Idaho Food Truck Feast is still going strong on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The Idaho Food Truck Coalition is becoming a great source to keep track of which trucks are where on any given day, as well as arranging for a gathering of vendors at […]
