We’re not fooling, Boise: we have a roundup of the best things to do and eat in April, starting with the inside scoop on a flashy new restaurant with playful cocktails. Host Lindsay Van Allen is swapping springtime tips with contributor Matthew Melton and producer Frankie Barnhill, including a paella class worth its weight in seafood, a fresh comedy club bringing laughs to the Bench, and a guide for eating fresh local produce all season long. 

For even more spring planning tips, check out this tomato growing community ed class, and start signing up for Parks & Rec summer camps and activities here. 

Plus, don’t miss our first ever live podcast taping at the Boise Depot, as part of the City of Boise’s centennial celebration of the iconic landmark! Mark your calendars for Tuesday April 15, 12 - 1 p.m. for a conversation about train travel with Mayor Lauren McLean and Valley Regional Transit CEO Elaine Clegg. 

If you're new here, welcome! We’ve put together a starter pack for you, with episodes and articles to welcome you to the City Cast Boise community.
