The Great 2011 Dining Slump Round-Up

Damn I've been having a hard time motivating myself to write lately.  It's just so much more difficult when the food is mediocre.  I mean how many ways are there to describe food that's more or less "just okay"?  I've had these things piling up because I don't want to bother writing about them, so rather than waxing eloquent, let's just clean house...

P.F. Chang's (happy hour)

If memory serves, though it probably will less often as the years continue to pass, P.F. Chang's opened their branch in downtown Boise back in 2005.  Just a quick aside: I don't call it "Bodo".  And I'm not going to.  Ever.  Anyway, like all new places, especially nationwide chains, it was a madhouse when the doors opened.  It continued to be a madhouse for months afterward, and it seemed that every time I was in the area (though I'll grant you I don't make it downtown often except for hockey games), it was always teeming with people.  Add to that the fact that everyone was telling me how expensive it was, and I just never went. 

A while back, my girlfriend went there with several co-workers and hasn't stopped raving about the place since.  I agreed with her that it was time for me to finally try it, and since we were planning to be only a few blocks away at The Flicks watching The Girl Who Played With Fire recently, it seemed like the perfect time.
