Lei's Mongolian BBQ Scores with Homestyle Asian Food in Chubbuck, Idaho




Noodle dish and sides
            Lei's Mongolian BBQ provides a low-key atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable enough to eat as many endless bowls of Asian noodles as you can possibly fit into your stomach. As a thriving college student, the obvious menu choice is the all-you-can-eat buffet ($9.99). The all-you-can-eat noodle dish is the most popular dish that the restaurant offers. 

Mary Lei and I after my visit
Once I had settled on the all-you-can-eat buffet, the food making was really up to me. In large refrigerated food containers was a variety of vegetable, noodle and meat options. Being able to make your own noodle dish gives you the opportunity to choose the flavors you want by combining your favorite veggies, meats, and sauces. Frozen crab, beef, pork and chicken were all options of meat to choose from as well as vegetables like carrots, zucchini, onions, water chestnuts, lettuce, green peppers, and more.


Mary cooking my noodle dish
After I finished creating my own noodle dish, Mary took my bowl and threw it on the fryer. It only took a few minutes for her to toss my noodles around and they were done.

Overall, the experience satisfied my taste buds and filled my stomach to its fullest. The food was delicious and was definitely worth the $10. Trip Advisor scores Lei's at a 3.5 while Yelp rates the Mongolian BBQ joint at a 4. Although the place isn’t fancy or modern, it is well worth your time, appetite, and money. 

Idaho Falls Bushido's Offering the Best Asian Cuisine Around

Tea and pieces of sushi

Bushido’s Sushi and Japanese Steak House is a great place to get authentic Asian cuisine in Idaho Falls.
Large pond in the restaurant
Three friends have owned the restaurant for a few years, but this was not their first. The original restaurant was opened in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. They closed the first restaurant when they decided to open the one in Idaho Falls.

Bushido’s caters to many tastes. Whether you are a sushi fanatic, or not a seafood lover, anyone can find a great meal. Their menu is expansive and full of great options. From Urbanspoon and Yelp between 60% and 74% of customers enjoyed their meal and service. One of the most popular sushi rolls is the Chef’s Choice Kamikaze. It seems like the chefs can’t go wrong with whipping up a bit on their own creations.

The comments are their Facebook page are mostly positive. The comments from the online community seem to not only enjoy the food but to like the environment and staff. From my experience I would highly agree with them. For more of my experience at Bushido’s Sushi and Japanese Steak House click here.

Beloved Fashions Spreading Fashion in Rigby Idaho





Beloved Fashions in Rigby Idaho is a wonderful little shop right in town on main street. 
I thoroughly enjoyed perusing through this shop and finding items I adored.
The owner Yan Wu, has worked on her shop for years to make it the best that it can be.
Wu has worked at her shop for four years and plans to branch out and open a new store in Idaho Falls and even possibly Pocatello in the future.
She loves retail as it is something that is easy to run and can meet many different women, but not only meeting them, they help her discover what is popular in which season and what sells.
It can be seen that she has some previous good reviews from some clientele, but has yet to get a good following.
Her shop is small and quiet but holds a lot of cute treasures.

Buddy’s Italian Restaurant, Serving the Best in Italian Food Since 1961

The Exterior of Buddy's Italian Restaurant
Buddy’s Italian Restaurant has been open and serving up great food for over fifty years. 
It was started by long time friends Bill Guido and Buddy Face. The current over, Steve Piper, took over the restaurant in 1970 and kept the original owners’ authentic Italian recipes. 
From the reviews on Yelp.com and TripAdvisor.com, Buddy’s salad is an overall customer favorite and makes the restaurant a must stop while visiting Pocatello. The dressing is so popular that the restaurant sells it by the bottle, and a jar even made it’s way into the hands of Guy Fieri from Food Network where he got his first taste of “Buddy’s Breath.” Other favorite menu items are the personal pizza and meatball sandwiches.


Their staff is very welcoming and strive to make their customers’ dinning experience one to remember. To stay up to date on current deals and specials, Buddy’s runs a Facebook page. For more on my experience at Buddy’s Italian Restaurant, click here.

Grilled chicken breast and rigatoni pasta served with Buddy’s old style marina sauce, hot meatball sub, and a personal side salad with Buddy’s in-house dressing.
