"Modern takes on French classics like steak frites and chicken Lyonnaise share space on the menu at Terroir Bistro with wild-caught sablefish in miso broth and silky smoked sturgeon. It’s helmed by Nate Whitley and Remi Courcenet, who started working together more than a decade ago at the Modern Hotel and Bar, where Whitley was a James Beard semifinalist. The duo have evolved Terroir over the years, starting as a butchery, then a supper club at a wine store, then a food trailer at a winery, and now a permanent location on Boise’s 8th Street restaurant row." - Scott Ki
