Last week, I asked y’all if you could place a wine bar that City Cast Boise’s host, Emma Arnold, recently had a show at. And a bunch of you did!

But if you aren’t familiar, here’s what some of your fellow readers had to say about Shadow Puppet, a natural wine bar on Vista Avenue (right next to the Babylon Market, kiddy-corner from the Vista Albertsons).

Simon:
“It’s the best place to have some natural wine in town! Plus Joe, the owner, is a great person!!”

Sydney:
“I highly recommend it to any readers who are interested in unique wines!”

Tracy:
“Best (only?) organic wine shop in Boise!”It is the only one to my knowledge, but please let me know if I’m wrong!

Along with their regular hours and events, Shadow Puppet also has a club called the Wine Zoo for exclusive sampling, and Tuesday through Saturday, they also serve food from Sundu’s Kitchen, with items like beef shawarma, kebabs, and more.
