restaurants

BREAKING: Bars, restaurants, casinos, brew pubs and wineries in Yellowstone County ordered to close, effective at 8 AM Tuesday morning through midnight 3/23.

Dining options on Thanksgiving day are be pretty slim, as 90% of the restaurants I called today reported they are going to be closed on Thanksgiving. Here is a list of some restaurants that will be open.

Construction is well underway on Montana's 2nd Panera Bread Company location. Plus, one of my favorite fish and chip places is temporarily closed til Jan 1.

I don't know who was driving it, but here's what I imagine his day was like. He figured he couldn't let such a nice Saturday go by without doing some fishing. He throws his gear on this beat up beast and heads out to a convenience store to grab the fishing necessities: live bait and a six pack. He spends a couple hours on the Yellowstone, but doesn't pull in anything worth keeping, so he swings in to the steak house to grab something decent to eat and some beer that's colder than the ones he's packing with him.

At Hog Wild, they still make these pies from scratch and they're worth every penny. The only negative is that they tend to run out of certain pies as the day goes on, but you do have the option to order a whole pie 24 hours ahead.

For several years now I've been seeing the sign reminding me not to miss the Valentine's Day Buffet at the Four Seas. I was talking to my would-be sister-in-law, Stef, about the final days of the Four Seas and we can't remember exactly what year this buffet occurred.
