No place better to be on a Saturday morning than the Capital City Public Market. Currently, as of…read morethe Summer of 2022, the Capital Saturday market is located at the Grove Plaza. The market runs from April-December every Saturday 9:30 am- 1:30 pm. The Grove Plaza is neighbored by the Boise Centre, ICCU Arena, and the BSU downtown campus. I live nearby, so I usually walk but there is both street parking and public garage parking nearby. Here you can find local produce (although, limited if you come later in the day), locally raised meats and fish, ceramics and other handmade products, and ready-made foods. I usually grab a mixed greens salad for $5, which lasts me the whole week. Something about these greens, they do last forever! I had a friend pick me up a bag while I was out of town (yes, I'm that addicted to this salad mix) and he actually bought twice as much as I usually do and they were still nice a crisp 1-2 weeks later! The microgreens here are great, and I love that you can get a mix of different microgreens in one container. There are also a few vendors that sell foods to snack on while you're shopping. My go-to is to grab a cup of coffee that's locally roasted, there's a spot that does have dairy alternatives along with flavored syrups that I love. The dumplings with the spicy momo sauce are the highlight of my Saturdays whenever I come here. If you're in Boise on a Saturday in April-Dec the Capital City Market is the spot to be. Highly recommend it, it's a Boise gem! Never too crowded but still a great spot to people and dog watch (Yes, dogs are allowed at this market)!!

Prices for the tickets were extremely reasonable. The concessions weren't very exciting, but they did have Dip n' Dots!! I would recommend seeing a show here if you are visiting or live in the area!

I honestly regret buying a CBH home. My house isn't even 3 years old, and the carpets throughout…read morethe home are already bunching up with massive humps and wrinkles everywhere. I paid out of pocket to have one room professionally restretched, and the installer told me the carpet was improperly installed from the beginning. He had to cut out 3 inches just to make it lay correctly. Now the same problem is happening in multiple rooms. The floors are another nightmare. I submitted warranty requests for squeaky floors several times within the first year of ownership, and every time it felt like pulling teeth just to get someone out here. Instead of fixing the problem properly, they make you pick and choose which squeaks they'll address, even though the entire home was still under warranty. Some areas were never fixed at all. This is the 5th home I've owned, and without question the poorest quality construction I've experienced. The shortcuts in workmanship are obvious once you actually live in the home. A new build should not already have failing carpet installation, squeaky floors, and ongoing repair issues before it's even 3 years old. CBH may build homes fast, but quality and customer care clearly take a back seat. If you're considering buying from CBH Homes, I strongly recommend looking at other builders before making the same expensive mistake I did.

We are not impressed by the cost of living with a pet here, and while we don't mind the idea of participating in DNA testing for dog waste, they will charge you in order to pay for the initial sample that they require on top of other pet fees you already pay instead of taking the fee out of your pet deposit or pet rent. Practices like this are what make us consider moving.

The apartment I'm living in is 80°. Attempting to turn the AC on turns it up to 85° if left on long enough. We've called for maintenance every day for the past 2 weeks. Now, we're being told "every time I stop by the AC is working. If your rooms are reaching 90, during the day spend time in the livingroom until your rooms cool down at night." Previously, they provided us with a portable AC unit which was set up in the living room. Today, we tried setting it up in my brother's room in hopes that it would reach the other 2 rooms well enough. Not only did it not, but it flipped the breaker. Probably because my mom is on oxygen, and the added load from the portable AC was too much for it. So the breaker flipped, turning my mom's oxygen tank off. We told them as much, and they don't care. Just reply with "it was working when I came by." The level of either incompetence, or unwillingness to do their job is astounding. This is just the nail in the coffin. We've lived here for 10 years, and the amount of things I could add is overwhelming. Even if you're desperate, keep looking.
