A leisurely drive from Missoula through the Idaho panhandle to our destination in Spokane. Here we stopped to eat sandwiches beside the swolen St Denis river in the hamlet of St Denis. A good espresso shack was nearby.
Welcome to Idaho. Exit Zero at the Montana - Idaho Border at the top of the Sawtooth range. About 4,800 ft. Yes, it is snowing.
A mile or two down the road is a scenic overlook. Idaho.
Dinner.I asked the manager at our motel in Spokane if there was a fish shack nearby with decent carry-out Pacific cod. She steered me to Anthony's, a high end restaurant in downtown Spokane. I drove ten miles into the city, found the restaurant, and the manager agreed to pull together two boxed dinners for me. While I waited for my food, I enjoyed a Flat Tire stout at the restaurant bar. Here is the view from the bar via my cell phone. Spokane Falls -
The cod was wonderful - fresh and firm. But this is a special-occasion restaurant, with a sleek design and a startling view. It is not a carry-out. If I return to Spokane anytime soon, I will eat here first. Anthony's at Spokane Falls, Spokane, Washington.
