Welcome!

🍂 November is here, and the chill is setting in across East Idaho! As the temperatures drop and the last leaves fall, our communities are lighting up with festive markets, concerts, parades, and family-friendly fun. From Idaho Falls’ dazzling tree lighting and live shows, to Pocatello’s Veterans Day celebrations, Rexburg’s Festival of Lights, and cozy craft markets across the valley — there’s no shortage of ways to stay warm and enjoy the season. Grab your coat, a cup of cocoa, and check out what’s happening around East Idaho this month!

Business Highlight T-Chê Brazilian Grill

My wife and I recently went back to T-Chê Brazilian Grill after hearing about their new tableside meat service, and we both agree — it’s a huge improvement. Instead of going up to the buffet, the servers now come right to your table with a variety of freshly grilled meats, carving them on the spot. Everything was hot, tender, and packed with flavor. The whole experience feels more personal and relaxed, and it’s quickly become one of our new favorite dinner spots in Idaho Falls.
