Rupert now has a better understanding of what the movie industry and Broadway players must feel. Knowing that our review was to be published this morning in the Scene section of the Idaho Statesman, Rupert confided in us that he had a troubled night of sleep. Weird dreams of past and different restaurants all mushed together, the forgotten side of demi glace that never quite makes it to the table, the chefs downstairs singing madrigals whilst playing bridge -never mind the tickets, Anthony Bourdain showing up for a peanut butter & oyster sandwich on rye toast; these are the sugarplums that dance in restaurant dogs heads while waiting for the review.

All for naught! James Patrick Kelly captured some of our favorite aspects of Rupert's and touched on our very good food quality, our efficient and professional service, the views, our cousins at Jug Mountain, and the remodels of the hotel.

And, he gave Rupert's his "Critics Choice" notation!

Take a look at our review and others featured in the Scene at www.idahostatesman.com/dining And thanks for visiting! Hope to see you soon and all of us wish all of you a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

New for Christmas!

Here they are! The new Princess and Spike tee shirts. Designed by a team of specialists for your gift giving needs. Both short and long sleeves are available as well as a new bright red hoody with Rupert's signature paw prints on the pocket and his image on the back.

Also available for your shopping needs are Rupert's hats and gift cards. Give us a call and we can help you fill your order over the phone and even get it in the mail.

Santa has it a little easier this year!

Some Holiday Help from Santa's Rupert Elf

Here is the latest from your friends at Rupert’s to help you with the holiday hustle and bustle:

We are open daily at 7am for Breakfast to help you get your day under way!

Remember that we have Saturday and Sunday brunch menus from 11am until 3pm. Perfect for that pick-me-up breakfast in the middle of your day if you have been busy in the shops or are coming off the slopes.

Chef Christopher and team will be rolling sushi every Wednesday and Thursday starting at 4pm. Some traditional, some classic, and some of our own variations on a theme will be available for you to enjoy along with a soul warming miso soup.

Christmas is fast approaching, and just so you know, Rupert’s will be serving both Christmas Eve and Christmas day. We will be open 7am until 9pm for Christmas Eve, and 7am until 6pm Christmas day. If you have a house full and want to head on over for breakfast, please do! Our dinner will start at 3pm on Christmas Day and we will accept reservations until 6pm. The dinner menu will feature:

Slow roasted Prime Rib
Stuffed Game Hen
Baked Kurabuta Ham
Fresh fish of the day

Rupert’s also has gift cards available for those last minute stocking stuffers. And a brand new shipment of Rupert’s ‘Spike’ & ‘Princess’ T-shirts, Hoodies, and Long sleeved Mock Turtlenecks along with our very popular Rupert’s paw hats for just about everyone on your list. Very cute!

New Year’s Eve will feature a special menu for dinner that night. Come in and enjoy dinner on your way to your favorite spot to count down the last minutes of 2007.

Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinners

Thanksgving dinner was a hit, thank you to the staff and the 93 guests that joined us for dinner! We expect to run very similar hours for Christmas day, this year, so you can count on us for Breakfast starting at 7am, followed by lunch which will be served until 2:30 and then for dinner which will start at 3pm and be served until 6.

Reservations were important for those that joined us on Thanksgiving, and will be even more so for Christmas dinner as we expect to have even more guests joining us from out of town. Call us at 208-634-8108 to make your reservations today.

Our menu hasn't been finalized yet, but you can expect to see (and enjoy) Prime Rib, fresh fish, as well as a couple more delightful selections waiting to be decided on from our all-star kitchen.

We look forward to seeing you in! Don't forget to ask for a Rupert's punch card on your next visit, and remember that a Rupert's gift card is a lot easier to put into a Christmas stocking than an order of pot stickers, winter beet salad, or an order of Eggs Benedict...

Local School Journalist reviews Rupert's

Compliments to the Chef
By Lindsey Hall, 7th grader Payette Lakes Middle School

You will find a restaurant called “Ruperts” down town, in Hotel McCall,(1101 North 3rd Street). The name “Ruperts” comes from the owner’s Jack Russell Terrier puppy’s name, Rupert. Ruperts’ logo is of Rupert him self, as a 2 year old puppy.
John Wood is the manager of Hotel McCall’s restaurant; Ruperts. He has been in the restaurant business for 25 years, and has lived in McCall for 13 years. Ruperts has been in McCall for 140 days, (approximately) since June 1st.
“We just make hand-made food freshly everyday.” Wood says. They make Chinese, Thai, Hispanic, American, and a little bit of French foods. “The Structure of Ruperts seems European to most people, but we mainly just designed Ruperts to fit in with the rest of the hotel. We have the same structure of the lobby’s supporting posts for example. We have bunches of mirrors inside the restaurant as well as the hallway on the way down to the restaurant.” Wood explains. Mirrors are a great touch. You might be seated somewhere where your back is turned to the lake. The mirrors will help you out by giving you a review look of the marvelous lake.
Many different types of customers come to Ruperts, they receive locals, tourists, elders, families, adults, and teenagers. It’s a great mix for a nice restaurant. “I have a good team of people here; we all like food, and love to share food. It makes the job so much more fun.” John Wood the manager explains. Visit www.hotelmccall.com or www.jugmountainranch.com for more information, email John Wood at johnwood@hotelmccall.com or you can contact Ruperts at 634-8108. Good Eats!
