– Nothing stops the march of time. All rational people know this to be true. The best we can do is to learn and experience as much as we can in the short time we have. I like to think that not a year passes that I don’t learn a valuable life lesson. This year’s […]
Taco Veloz
onThe only place on the truck where the name & logo are easily visibleTo be honest, my loved ones don’t understand my fixation with truck food. Especially my girlfriend. I guess that’s fair, since I don’t really understand their desire to eat at places like Taco Bell. So, I usually hit up trucks alone or […]
Idaho Pizza Company
onWhen it comes to Idaho Pizza Company, there are a few strange things about my relationship with it. First of all, aside from one time where I got a personal-sized one for lunch, I’ve never eaten their pizza. The second odd thing would be that I’ve only ever gone there for lunch. And third would be […]
A dork’s manifesto…
onThis is going to be another post without even a sideways review in it, but I just had to share. This blog gets a pretty decent amount of views, but not a lot of comments. Last night, there was one waiting back on my first Boise Fry Company review:sourgarlic said… You are a DORK. Stay […]
I’d like an order of food critcism, light on the criticism please…

To me, Yokozuna is first and foremost the Polynesian WWF wrestler from back in the 90’s. But increasingly when I hear the term, my mind turns to one of my favorite beverages, bubble tea, and the […]
Any port in a storm…
onSouthern Tsunami dragon roll from Fred MeyerHad to run an errand at lunch time today, which left no time for a separate lunch stop. Luckily, Fred Meyer has some fairly decent sushi available. Granted, it’s kind of a fast food (or in this case grocery store deli) version, but tasty nonetheless and better than the […]
Boise Soul Food Extravaganza
onThis is a long one, kids. I hope you’ve set aside some time…If I remember the promotional info correctly, this is the 18th year for the Boise Soul Food Extravaganza, said to be the biggest in the Northwest and the second oldest of its kind in in the country. All I knew is that if […]
Pho Tam
onI’ve mentioned it once or twice over the past few weeks, but a Vietnamese eatery called Pho Tam has recently taken over the spot vacated by Chef Express just south of Golden Star on Orchard in Boise. I have almost no experience with Vietnamese food other than the sandwiches and spring rolls at Baguette Deli (previous […]
