In the Kitchen with Hannah McClellan
The owner of Figgie’s is a former pastry chef who ensures every aspect of each sandwich (or cookie, or chip or salad) is made with intention. Hearty sandwiches, chock-full of unexpected ingredient combinations, served alongside irresistibly crispy house-made chips and insanely delicious cookies — it’s no wonder Figgie’s Deli is a local favorite in Teton Valley. Owner Hannah McClellan launched the eatery in 2022, departing from her background as a pastry chef. Though she had never previously envisioned herself opening a restaurant, the post-pandemic moment inspired her to create a space — and a menu — that the community was missing.

5th Street Bagelry to hold 30-cent bagel day for 30th anniversary celebration
Local mainstay 5th Street Bagelry has provided Gate City patrons with delicious specialty bagels and a community space welcoming generations of customers over the past three decades. To celebrate 30 years, the business has planned a huge event next month to show its appreciation to loyal supporters. For the entire day Aug. 21, anyone visiting a 5th Street Bagelry location in Pocatello can purchase a bagel with schmear for only 30 cents. The evening will also feature outdoor live music from local band Spudmother starting at 7:30 p.m. In the three years that owner Dave Raisch has operated the longtime Pocatello establishment, he has expanded to a new location on Yellowstone Avenue in Chubbuck and continues to seek ways to grow the popular restaurant. “It feels good to see different groups of people or generations come in, whether it’s younger kids all the way up to old folks — that’s a neat tradition,” Raisch said. “You see a lot of families that come in and bring loved ones. They prefer that over some of the bigger chains that are out there locally.” Raisch also credited local bakeries the shop partners with for desserts, highlighting Trisha of Baked Pretty as their

A Treat for Every Table: Cottage bakery Bunnie Bakes curates inclusive desserts for all
POCATELLO — A local cottage bakery is curating deliciously crafted desserts for a niche market, creating cupcakes, cookies, confections and other treats that are entirely gluten-free, nut-free and vegan. Bunnie Bakes was founded in 2022 by Bunnie Myers, who launched the business while living in Idaho Falls after she and a close friend, Ollie Weber, were each diagnosed with food allergies in adulthood and share a restrictive diet. Myers and Weber met through an outside job and quickly became friends. Weber began helping fund the bakery during its earliest markets. When they both relocated to Pocatello in 2024, Weber became a full business partner. The pair founded the cottage confectionery to provide a service to anyone who has ever shown up to a party, public market or wedding and found themselves unable to safely eat anything on the menu. “We really wanted to fill in that emptiness where people just feel excluded in being able to have a treat,” Myers said. “We just think everyone deserves something, whether it’s a cupcake or a cookie or some bread or whatever they need.” That accessibility also extends to the cost, to make their treats as affordable as possible. Weber said baking has
