End of loooonnngggg day. Leftovers heated in hotel room microwave and a gin and tonic were calling…read moreour name at 7:30pm. Had the leftovers in the hotel room fridge. Had no gin or tonic. A quick google of liquor sales in Eagle informed us that like our current home state of Oregon, liquor can only be purchased in state run stores in Idaho. (As the good people of Washington state now know, there are advantages to the state run system. See This n That. ;-)). Made our way to this Eagle liquor store (one of two in the city) with about ten minutes to spare before their 8pm weekday close time. Spacious store. Nice selection of gin and other adult beverages. Delightful, friendly young woman behind the counter who being only 19 couldn't offer us any advice on whether the local distillery gin that was on the shelf with others was good. In Idaho you can sell liquor when you're 19 although you can't buy it until you're 21. Go figure. We bought a favorite gin, price was a couple of dollars less in Idaho than we'd pay in Oregon, a bottle of tonic and we were good to go. We'll be back when bourbon season rolls around. THIS N THAT: 1) PARKING: Street parking right in front of store was easy to find. I think there is also a lot in back. 2) ACCESSIBILITY: Level in at door and throughout. 3) HOURS: Closed Sundays I think. (Although there are other liquor stores in the area that are open Sundays.) Mon - Thu 10a - 8p. Fri - Sat 10a - 9p. 4) POLITICAL RAMBLING - STATE RUN ADVANTAGE (?): I am a life long, card carrying Capitalist and on the face of things it might have seemed like a good idea to me too, were I still a WA state registered voter as I once was, to get the State out of the liquor sales business. A couple of years ago when the good people of Washington state passed measure 1138 to privatize liquor sales, I thought it would be an interesting experiment to observe since we keep talking about putting a similar measure on Oregon's ballot. Alas, what has happened is that liquor prices have gone up, in some cases WAY up, in Washington state post 1138. Folks drive to Oregon, across the border from Vancouver into Portland for example, to buy booze since it is lower priced here at our State run stores. As illustration, Portland area liquor sales have gone up dramatically since WA passed 1138. Another example is a liquor store that opened up in Kootenai County Idaho, right across the border from Spokane Washington. Since 1138 passed in Washington state, that Kootenai County Idaho liquor store has had an astronomical increase in liquor sales, thanks to folks making the less than 30 minute drive from Spokane to get there, and is now among the highest grossing liquor stores in the state of Idaho based on a recent revenue report. Politics can be enough to make you drink, don't you think? For now I'm thinking if Oregon did float a ballot measure, like Washington's 1138, to privatize liquor sales while I'm I still voting here I'd toast to "NO" looking at what's happened to our neighbors to the north.

In a previous life the building that houses this state run liquor store (as all in Idaho are) was a…read morebank; hence the two drive trough aisle windows on the State Street side of the building. But Idaho does not provide drive through sales of hooch. So you know, unlike the guy in the red pick up truck with Texas plates who we saw today drive through up to the window thinking he could order to go. The store is well lit and well stocked with a very helpful woman working at the counter who asked us, as we checked out our order, if we needed vodka. Maybe because we had a bottle of bourbon, rye, gin and tequila as our purchase. Once every 12 or so months we find the bourbon and gin bottles at our house are empty and our last purchase of them was Thanksgiving 2023. Once every couple of years the same holds true for tequila and rye so in some years, like this one, all need replacing at one time. So it was intuitive for the nice woman to ask if we needed vodka but that is a spirit we use so often that I think I'd have to brush the dust off of the Grey Goose bottle in the liquor cabinet before I poured it. But I have read that vodka is the best selling kind of hooch in this part of Idaho and, boy howdy, it sure seemed so for the selection in this store. My husband said the vodka display looked like the cereal at Albertsons for the over abundance of options. We don't need a liquor store often but when we do we will come back to this location. On the topic of location, this is in the same strip mall complex that houses Winco and Home Depot. Woohoo PS: They have Licor 43 at this store so for we fans of that botanical liquor from Cartegna, Spain, to make Carajillo, the liquor and coffee Mexican after dinner drink, we no longer have to drive to the liquor store in Boise's North End to buy it. A couple of years ago when I bought a bottle, that North End store was the only one to carry it. Accessibility: One spot of accessible parking in front of bank and the only curb ramp is on the side of that.

It looked like quartz or granite and my proteins got stuck to it, which was a bit of a miss for the price. This needs to be a hot rock, consider a change here, otherwise this app is going to suffer. Nice restaurant and look forward to another visit but won't be ordering this app again.

The funny thing is, we were actually on the other end of the street for dessert and decided we needed something savory for dinner (not just ice cream). So, we wandered on over to Rare Steakhouse. The atmosphere is somehow both very laid back and Idaho-upscale. If you know, you know. The staff was incredibly friendly and we were tucked into a corner where we could watch the Boise State game on TV. No major appetizers on this trip but I did ask for my clam chowder to come out first. And ya'll...this is the best clam chowder I've had in the area. I honestly was not expecting to like it as much as I did. Highly recommend! My husband and I shared the prime rib and it was also very tasty--and a good cut, too! Easily enough for both of us with a few yummy potato sides. The only reason for knocking it down a star... The water was kind of weird. Our waitress assured us it was triple-filtered but it had an off-putting taste to me. If we're ever in the area again, I'd honestly probably bring a water bottle. Nonetheless, the food was the star and that's the most important thing.
