City Cast Boise is the proud winner of Best Podcast in Boise Weekly’s annual Best of Boise awards. To share the love, we want to show off a few of the other winners who have been featured on City Cast Boise and in the Hey Boise newsletter.
Best Concert Venue: Outlaw Field at the Idaho Botanical Gardens, which is a must-do activity every summer, especially as a kick-off to the season.
Best Tourist Attraction: None other than the Greenbelt, which is featured in approximately every other City Cast Boise podcast episode.
Best Happy Hour: Boise Weekly voters and I agreed that Barbacoa deserved the honor once again for its daily BOGO. Barbacoa also took home first place in “dining experience.”
Best Caldwell Restaurant: We called it Caldwell’s “crown jewel” restaurant, so it’s no surprise that the winner is Amano!
Best Frozen Treat: The STIL took this one, and while it has plenty of competition, we love it for its bountiful options, locations, and boozy flavors.
Best Indian Food: Meridianite and City Cast Boise podcast host Lindsay Van Allen won with this one! It’s Red Fort Cuisine of India, which is a pretty new addition to the local restaurant scene but well deserving of the award.
Best Grocery Store: Back in City Cast Boise’s early days, we heaped our love on WinCo — because it’s never failed us.
Best Bookstore: It’s in a new location, but it’s a classic for a reason: Rediscovered is always ago-to!
