Mustard Seed on 15th & Grand
This place is worth going out of your way. For either lunch or dinner. Good beers and wines. Sort of a popular Asian idea on most of the dishes. Everybody moves here and the choreography works. Recommended. Today I had the appetizer form of glazed ribs for my entree together with some tasty soup. I [… Read More]
Jake’s Bar & Grill West End
The entrance to the new Jake’s restaurant south of King, on the curve where S 24th becomes Gabel Rd. This place is larger than the one downtown and seems a little noisier but there were a fair number of people there at lunch on a Tuesday. The menu seems about the same though with perhaps [… Read More]
Good Burgers Only A Day Trip Away
This one was noted in Cooke City a few days ago. That is bleu cheese and bacon along with a good burger. And Bozeman continues to surprise us. This is a new restaurant, actually part of a nation-wide chain started a few years ago in Columbus Ohio,and now recently opened in the Hotel Baxter on [… Read More]
Moons Over My Hammy®
Eggs, ham and two kinds of cheese on toast. What more of a breakfast could you ask for? The Denny’s on 27th St serves up some good breakfasts and other things too I suppose. I can’t resist a play on words. It tastes good too. And in addition a very nice older gentleman told the [… Read More]
An Even Better Sandwich and Soup Place
Recently the good folks at The Granary have decided to expand their offerings. Carol and I tried them for lunch a couple of days ago after we had received our marching orders from El Rushbo for the day. They are very good. In addition to their usual excellent choices in wines and beers, they put [… Read More]
A Good Sandwich and Soup Place
On Broadway, I think they call it Valley something or other now, in the basement of the place across from what used to be Hart-Albin’s a long time ago there is a little restaurant run by some nice ladies of varying ages. They do breakfasts and lunches and then they clean up and go home. [… Read More]
Coming Soon To A Theatre Near You
Rimrock Opera is doing Carmen at the Alberta Bair Theatre for the second time in their ten year lifespan. It should be even better this time than in 2002. Be sure to get your tickets soon for the last Saturday or Sunday in March. Doug Nagel, general director of Rimrock Opera, is one of our [… Read More]
A Visit To Montana Avenue
Late Saturday morning is when I start getting hungry. This past Saturday was no exception. We thought we would forgo the usual Perkins, IHOP, Dennys routine for something more lunch-like and maybe a little more uptown. I had just finished an autopsy and needed some cheering up. Montana Ave has a lot of good places [… Read More]
Chili Macaroni at Sonic Speed
Last July I mentioned that Romano’s Macaroni Grill and Chili’s were thinking of setting up shop in Billings. The Gazette’s Jan Falstad is reporting that the rumors are true and, in addition, a Sonic’s is coming to town also. Soon we’ll get the chance to see if the food at Sonic’s is any good or [… Read More]
Saturday Morning Errands
It isn’t the usual thing to drive over to CostCo on a Saturday morning to buy flowers but it is St Valentine’s day and although wife Carol told me we were not celebrating this holiday this year I wasn’t certain whether I should believe her. So just to be on the safe side I found [… Read More]
