Lunch at Fuddrucker’s
I haven’t been to Fuddrucker’s for what seems like a very long time. I’ve always liked the ambiance, including a diverse collection of folks who like burgers, including, in the West End establishment which includes an outdoor patio, some ducks who are paying attention to anything that drops from the table; and there is usually [… Read More]
Big Deal at Dehler on Saturday
A parade and fireworks and speeches by big politicos, and crowds of people seeking their autographs and maybe 5 thousand fans giving them a big welcome back home.
Billings’ Big Sky All-Stars in Little League World Series
Ever since the semi-final of the Northwest Regional Little League baseball tournament last week in San Bernardino CA, the Gazette and our local TV stations have been full of stories on the games, the players, the coaches, the fans, the parents and families, and for all I know the pets of the players, that the [… Read More]
Lemon Grass: Thai Restaurant Opens
Carol and I were shopping at WalMart and Bed, Bath and Beyond and checking out Borders to see it they were still open on Saturday when we got hungry. Carol saw this place on the way in so we decided to give it a try. It is located in an undistinguished building on the edge [… Read More]

But I was wrong. I saw my first Bell Ringer at Albertson’s on Rehberg and [… Read More]
Willy Wonka at the Venture
This was the year that all the young would-be singers, actors and dancers in this area got a chance to do their thing. Willy Wonka was and still is for at least another couple weekends the big musical thing with a great many enthusiastic kids as Oompa—Loompas at Venture Theatre; Peter Pan is playing at [… Read More]
The Soup Place at Night
Finally, we had a chance to stop in for an evening meal at one of our favorite lunch time hangouts. They have a bigger menu in the evening, that is, more than just soup and sandwiches, but it is still fairly simple fare. The wine and beer is still pretty good. I forget the name [… Read More]
The Soup Place Scores Again
One of my favorite Billings restaurants is The Soup Place on Broadway. Lunches are mainly some form of soup and a sandwich which is a sensible lunch. They have a number of set sandwiches and soups and then some variables every day. Friday, 20 November, was a good day. Naturally I expected some very good [… Read More]
