Anyone who’s seen my Facebook page knows that it exists primarily to promote my eatery write-ups, but I also try to pass along any food offers from the numerous daily deal sites.  If you haven’t been keeping an eye on these things, you’ve been missing out.  I’ll likely do a blog entry on them at some […]

Okay, this isn’t going to be a very typical review, but since I’ve been advised to write about it I guess I’ll do so.  It wasn’t intended to be a write-up though, so please forgive the lack of pictures.So Jimmy John’s is a pretty big chain, and when they first popped up in Meridian I heard conflicting reports […]

No, not the A Taste of Thai that makes the colorfully packaged canned and boxed foods that you can buy in pretty much every grocery store.  This A Taste of Thai is the latest link in a small chain based out of Twin Falls, and took over the space vacated by the Saigon Grill at […]

As I mentioned in my review of Great Harvest in Boise, they’ve changed their approach to sandwiches over the years.  In that regard, the Meridian location is a trip back in time.  If you prefer the sandwiches the way they used to make them, using the big round loaves of bread, or if you never […]
