A couple of weeks ago, the B29 Streatery truck was parked across from WDS Global near the corner of Golden Trout and Kimball in Boise.  I decided to hit them up for lunch, and while I was there I noticed another truck parked a short distance down the block.  While the Streatery was putting my order […]

This may be one of my most comprehensive review to date.  The two adults in this household have become very fond of Zen Bento lately.  Over the course of six days we visited them three times, and I’ve had the opportunity to try five different items.  No hilarious anecdotes or anything to relate though, so this should […]

I’m not in the habit of writing a second blog entry about places.  At least so far.  Even though I will revisit places that I love, albeit far less often than I would like, I would rather focus on ground I haven’t already covered.  There have been a few exceptions, like Boise Fry Company and […]

Kyoto Japanese Steak House is located just West of Curtis on Fairview, and has been for some time now.  They must be doing fairly well to have been open for so long, but I don’t recall the last time someone mentioned to me (or even within my earshot) that they had eaten there.  Among the […]

If memory serves, though it probably will less often as the years continue to pass, P.F. Chang’s opened their branch in downtown Boise back in 2005.  Just a quick aside: I don’t call it “Bodo”.  And I’m not going to.  Ever.  Anyway, like all new places, especially nationwide chains, it was a madhouse when the doors […]

Just over a month ago, I wrote a blog on my thoughts regarding the Idaho Statesman’s “Best of Treasure Valley” poll.  Mostly it was me ranting and griping, and the first thing I discussed (indeed, the thing that made me want to write the blog entry in the first place) was the “Best Asian Restaurant” category.  […]
