Recipes, Restaurant Reviews, and Travel
I first heard about Craigie on Main when a friend was telling me about how he tried their incredible burger. From then on, I assumed that the restaurant was more like a pub than anything else. As it turns out, Craigie on Main is more known for their casual yet fine dining cuisine because their burger... Continue Reading →
I've said it before that despite its reputation, it's actually hard to find great food on Federal Hill aside from a few restaurants. Luckily, a relatively new addition to Federal Hill in Providence, makes me eat those words (pun intended)! A friend who ate at Enoteca Umberto before suggested that my wife and I meet her...

It took about 12 years for me to reconnect with a friend from high school because she happened to coincidentally befriend my girlfriend at the time (now my wife) during their medical residency. As a result of these new connections made and old connections revitalized, we've had the benefit of dining out from time to time... Continue Reading →
There are a lot of mixed reviews about Ichigo Ichie. I've been there a few times and I am also unsure of how I feel about this restaurant.

After much evaluation we settled on the farthest U.S. state from the Northeast. Neither of us... Continue Reading →
I was introduced to ramen noodles fairly late in life as far as I'm concerned. Nonetheless, I've been making up for it by trying different restaurants offering this hearty Japanese soup. There has been a ramen-boom in RI and Massachusetts relatively recently and new restaurants are popping up more than ever. I'm not sure why... Continue Reading →
I have yet to find more than three real Middle Eastern restaurants that actually have good food in the Massachusetts and Rhode Island areas. One of them is the incomparable East Side Pockets in Providence, RI (Syrian), another is Falafel King in Quincy, MA (Iraqi) and the other is Joe's Shish Kabob (Lebanese) covered in...

Before one of my friends moved to Boston, MA, we were hanging out near where he used to live in Rhode Island. A few hours after dinner, we were hankering for a taco and he suggested that we head to Tacos Don Nacho for a taco fix. I had seen Tacos Don Nacho before while... Continue Reading →
