I have a close friend that grew up in North Attleboro, MA, so I'm familiar with the area. I'm also familiar with the fact that there isn't much in the way of diverse cuisine there other than chain or fast food style restaurants. That's why I was so excited when I heard that a new...

Sponsored Post: Do You Ever Feel Like Having a Big Az Sandwich?
Many moons ago, I used to work as a bouncer at a bar in Boston, MA during my college years. Often, I'd get out of work in the wee morning hours between 2:30 AM and 3:30 AM. On my way home, my only companion was a ravenous hunger that demanded attention. In those moments, I... Continue Reading →

Prior to their release on September 6, 2016, I had the opportunity to try a free sample of Gather Chocolate by Harbor Sweets, which makes handcrafted artisan chocolates.

The lulling crash of blue-green waves, the sun bursting through the clouds reflecting off the sand crystals, and the smell of the ocean on the breeze are all wonderful. With that said, I'm just one of those extremely rare people who doesn't enjoy going to the... Continue Reading →

PVDonuts Gourmet Doughnuts Review – Providence, RI
This review is made possible by my wife who, on a weekday off from work, went to try and obtain some of the elusive doughnuts everyone in Providence is raving about.
