The 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 […]

Great Harvest Bread Co. (Boise)
on(I doubt I could find many people who would say the smell of bread baking isn’t one of their favorite scents. Well maybe I could, but I wouldn’t want to know those people. There’s just something fundamentally alluring about that aroma, and at Great Harvest Bread Co., they bake about ten different kinds every day. […]

Possibly even owned by the same people, since I know the phone number didn’t change this last time. I never bothered stopping there because it looks like a divey little diner, and there […]
Portuguese Barbecue Lunch Wagon – CLOSED (well, it’s now a Mexican food truck actually)
onThe Portuguese Barbecue Lunch WagonAfter many times driving by, I finally hit this place yesterday. It’s located next to the Chevron on Curtis, just north of Franklin in Boise, and it’s the first food truck that ever gave me a menu. Though why one is needed when there are only four menu items, I don’t know. […]
