Pekin Noodle Parlor

St. Patrick's Day is on a Monday this year and that naturally means that here in Butte, the Friday, Saturday and Sunday leading up to the big day will be full of fun, events and, yes, imbibing. Are you looking for a green beer or a hearty plate of corned beef and cabbage? Something different entirely? Here are some great spots in Butte to enjoy over the weekend leading up to March 17.

The Montana Folk Festival is one of Butte's biggest events of the entire year. People from literally all over the world converge on the Mining City for one of the region's biggest and best music festivals. Are you one of the thousands who will be joining us from out of town? Here are a few of our picks for a quick bite or a sit-down meal.

In a moment that will warm even the coldest of hearts, the owner of Pekin Noodle Parlor got a surprise on live television.

This place is an institution.
