Sunday, October 3, 2010

This is good: a Great Falls blogger is offering up The Local Dish!

Chow Time!

Chow Time!

Holy cow – it struck me today that we’ve got an awful lot of eateries opening up or on the way here in Great Falls! First, the new On The Border restaurant opened up today, taking the place of Tony Roma’s in the Marketplace. Seems to me that it’s a bit cannibalistic, being so close to Chili’s, but I’ll give it a shot. Heard good things about it. Second, there’s a new place that opened last week in the...

New GF Blog!

Tuesday, January 20, 2009

Another new Great Falls blog! This one is titled “GF Restaurant Blog,” and kicks off with this introduction: This came about from many conversations and stories about my escapades in Great Falls Eateries. From constantly being served ice cold food in Great Falls’ finer restaurants to drive-through turmoil. I invite anyone with anything to say about dining in Great Falls, good or bad. I can’t be the only in this town with stories. You know the drill: go visit,...

Farewell Zandy’s

Farewell Zandy’s

I don’t break out the “bleep” very often here at Greater Falls, but this is warranted: some POS f***king burglars have caused Zandy’s to close their doors earlier than scheduled. Earlier reports that it would remain open until the end of the month were, sadly, not true, because of these #%*@%&! burglars. The plan was to keep the drive-in, which opened in the mid-1960s, up and running for a couple of more weeks to give the employees a chance...

Park-n-Ponder Closing?

Sunday, January 4, 2009

Uh oh – some more troubling restaurant news: the folks at the Park-n-Ponder have announced via a MySpace bulletin that they are closing on Friday: “PARK AND PONDER IS CLOSING ON FRIDAY FOR GOOD. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING EVERYONE!!!” I hope it’s not true, but with the recent loss of Tony Roma’s, Sedgie’s, Burger Master, and Cattin’s, I wouldn’t be surprised. If this is true, then fans of the Lobster Bisque only have one more Friday to enjoy it. UPDATE:...

Hooray for Howard’s Pizza!

Thursday, December 11, 2008

On my second night in Great Falls – way back in 2002 – I was tired from the long move & drive to Montana, meeting realtors, etc. I was in my hotel room (Crystal Inn – nice place), and didn’t feel like going out to find food. So I flipped open the phone book and noticed an ad for “Howard’s Pizza” – and the ad mentioned that they delivered, and it appeared to be pretty close to Gore Hill....

Defending Taco Treat

Defending Taco Treat

“I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” Famous quote, often attributed to Voltaire (perhaps incorrectly). And how does that relate to today’s blog entry? Try this: “I disapprove of what you eat, but will defend to the death your right to eat it.” That’s my attitude towards Taco Treat, the beloved Montana fast-food Tex-Mex joint. You probably remember that I’ve tried Taco Treat a few times, and found...
