Fledgling specialty food business making fantastic salsa macha (two varieties right now - cranberry…read moreand peanut) using top quality ingredients and in 6.35 oz jars at a limited number of local retailers including the Boise Farmers Market (drive through service at least, not sure about the walk about) on Saturdays. The price point ($16.50 at Farmers Market) may seem a bit 'ouch' at first but these creations are worth every penny for the quality and flavor. See photo posted for the label of the cranberry salsa macha for ingredients list (olive oil, nuts, seeds, chiles, cranberries). Three first generation Mexican American sisters are the little engine that can behind this brand, leveraging their knowledge from their family's successful salsa business of twenty years standing in Mexico. If you know a home cook who is 'into' new trends for condiments you'll likely find salsa macha is on their radar and this top quality product would be a perfect host / hostess gift to take along as thank you. Of the salsa machas I have tried this brand is at the top of the list. The uses are many as in to top eggs, to use in rice or noodles, to add to salad dressings, to dress roasted sweet potatoes and at our house tonight some of the cranberry salsa will be dolloped on a braised pork shoulder and squash Mexican stew. I am so glad to have discovered this salsa macha and now you have too! They sell online it seems. https://www.chicanafoods.com/shop PS - More good news about this good business is some of the profits made by this company are used to support worthwhile causes like stay-in-school non profits.

Dropped in for a quick lunch, which turned out not to be quick. Obviously a popular spot and 5…read morepeople were in front of me. Not much standing or waiting room and the dining area is very small, so there were no seats. It took 15 minutes to order and another 15 to get me food. So not a quick lunch. Of course, have to start off with the street tacos. For $3.75 a pop, I was hoping for a little better to be honest. Al pastor and Carne Asada meats were both tough and chewy. The best one was the marinated chicken. Good, but not great. There are some other items I might try to round out a fuller opinion, but street tacos are my baseline for assessing how they manage the fundamentals.

My wife can be a little picky about trying new spots, so I was hopeful she'd like it -- and thankfully, we were both pleasantly surprised! I ordered the Papa Torta, and it was incredible. I usually skip tortas because they tend to be all lettuce and no meat, but this one was packed with meat, flavor, and freshness. Easily one of the best I've had in a long time! My wife ordered the veggie burrito and fries, and she loved it -- finished every bite and gave it two thumbs up. We're both originally from California, and it's been tough finding those authentic flavors we've missed since moving. This little spot really brought us back to that familiar, homemade taste we've been craving. If you're looking for something different, delicious, and authentically Mexican, give this place a try -- you won't be disappointed!

The time around I got flautas in a cup, quesabirria taco, and a huarache. The chicken flautas had a good crunch to them and the lettuce added that freshness to it. The asada huarache was very flavorful especially when paired with the red salsa. The quesabirria taco was also good. The service was 10/10! Super friendly! It was open air ambiance with tables to sit down at if you want to eat there. There's also little lights that light up around the table area. Will be going back again. If anyone's looking for a Mexican food spot to try this is the place. Very underrated in my opinion.

Alright, forget about finding some of the chili in Boise at a restaurant. You'll have to track down…read moreChilitime.com to get that. It might be a little difficult at first, but I promise you time worth huntin' them down. When I saw Chilitime.com would be two miles away from my subdivision I made it my mission to head down and give them a try. I hate dealing with rush hour traffic, so I rarely dine out on weekdays, but I couldn't pass this opportunity up after hearing about their chili dogs for months. It's easy to spot the big, orange chili truck from afar. A very nice man (owner, I presume) told us about the chili and offered us samples of their "Traditional" Texas and "House" Cincinnati. I had to go with the Traditional (a spicy blend of peppers, tomatoes, onions and other spices, with beans included) on the Knife & Fork Dog (jumbo hot dog, butterflied on bun, covered in chili, onions, & cheese, $8.00). YUM YUM YUM. High quality bun and dog, chili was full of delicious beef and jam packed with flavor that burst like dynamite with each bite with a generous amount of cheese once melted only enhanced the experience. Topped with a lil' complementary jalapeños and pepperonchinis for an extra crunch, I devoured my dinner and spent the rest of my evening a very happy and satisfied customer. In addition to chili cups and dogs, they offer various appetizers like chili tots, chili fries, corn bread muffins, chip and dip, and nachos which I'm already aiming to try next time around. I wanted to try this trip but I have a rather small tummy and can only eat so much food...the worst curse a foodie can have IMO. You can find their schedule on the Street Food Finder app or their social media pages on Facebook and Instagram. I can't wait to try the Cincinnati chili when they're in my vicinity once more!

Now that the weather is getting a bit cooler, be sure to check out Chilitime.com, a Treasure…read moreValley-based food truck that specializes in a regional dish called Cincinnati chili which consists of chili, spaghetti, shredded cheddar cheese, diced onions and kidney beans. I ordered mine "five-way", which means it included spaghetti, chili, beans, onions and cheese. It's a hearty and filling dish that will appeal to many. The owners of this business are Tim and Kristine Rogan. Kristine grew up in Cincinnati, which is where this dish originated. There are numerous businesses that specialize in Cincinnati chili, but the two most famous are Skyline and Gold Star. To appreciate Cincinnati chili it's helpful to know a little about the history of this dish. In 1921. Tom and John Kiradjieff Immigrated from Greece to the United States. They begin servingIt a "stew with Mediterranean spices" as a topping for hotdogs, which they called "coneys." In 1922, Tom used the sauce to modify a traditional Greek pasta dish, and came up with a dish that he called chili spaghetti. His initial recipe required the spaghetti to be cooked in the chili, but due to customer demand, he began serving the sauce as a topping to spaghetti, eventually adding grated cheese as a topping for both the chili spaghetti and the coneys. Compared to a traditional Texas chili, Cincinnati chili is a thin meat sauce that typically includes a bit of cinnamon. as well as other spices. Although I've only had this dish once, I can understand how it might quickly become a favorite comfort food. I look forward to trying it again.
