Recipes, Restaurant Reviews, and Travel
It's a little embarrassing to admit that despite growing up around Providence, RI, I only recently had my first Venda Ravioli experience over the summer. After eating there, I'm more than disappointed in myself for not trying it sooner and sad that I went so many years without it! Almost everyone knows the name as... Continue Reading →
For most people, if the weather is hot, ice cream sounds like a great idea. If you're like me, ice cream sounds like a great idea regardless of the weather. Over the summer I made the rounds and tried ice cream from old favorites to new shops I'd never tried before. This post highlights three... Continue Reading →
Providence Flea is a self-described upscale flea market that has all kinds of trinkets, baubles, and other wonders of Providence, RI. It started in June 2013 and takes place every Sunday during the summer until August 25th (rain or shine). I'm not sure how the organizers landed the great location right on the water, but they...

It didn't hurt their cause though that I happen to love Vietnamese food, which Lotus Pepper specializes in serving! What... Continue Reading →

I don't know Mandy personally, so I didn't know what to expect, but once she sent me her story (below), I knew I needed to share her post with... Continue Reading →
I haven't been to many hot pot restaurants and when I was younger I used to scoff at the idea that you had to complcook your own food at a restaurant. I mean, what are you paying for if not someone else cooking your food for you? Nonetheless, a few years ago, I tried hot... Continue Reading →
My brother's 30th birthday celebration occurred this past weekend and I wanted to take him to a mid-level steakhouse for dinner. Due to the fact that it was also Mother's Day weekend, I couldn't find any local steakhouses that could accommodate a large party (about 10 people) on a Saturday night. The only place that...
