A few weeks ago when I left northern Idaho to head over to Washington state I promised that when I got to Boise, in southern Idaho, later in the trip that I’d give you a full helping of potatoes. Well, because of my 3-day obsession with trying to satisfy my preconceived notions about Hell’s Canyon I never made it to any of the fine establishments in Boise to sample any of their fare.
Here are two of the places I had planned to visit:
Westside Drive In (a Boise institution, known for their Idaho Ice Cream Potato)

Boise Fry Company – serving up fries of various types of potatoes (Russet, Purple, Sweet, etc.) in various forms (Shoestring, Curly, Homestyle, etc). Check out their menu online.

I will come back to visit Hell’s Canyon again and spend more time there, as well as doing the things I had originally planned to do in the Boise area.
