Where lawyers don’t eat

June 23, 2008 on 12:30 pm | In History, TGIF |

Above the Law has a post up on “Where the Lawyers Eat Out” which contains a list of “recommendations for restaurants in various Biglaw cities.”

Something tells me that ‘if’ Boise was a “Biglaw city” that this local restaurant would probably not make the list: The Crescent “NO LAWYERS” Bar & Grill. Not because of the food/service, but because of their “no lawyers” policy. Their menu (menu link: here) includes:

LAWYER FRIES — “You know that lawyers don’t have any!” Some people call them Rocky Mtn. Oysters or Bull Fries. We “lovingly” call them lawyer fries. Served with hot mustard. $8.95

The menu even explains that the restaurant’s name came after a legal dispute with a neighbor (attorney) over the bar owner wanting to build a swimming pool in his backyard (and the attorney fighting him over it). Only in Idaho….
