Not too long ago I was at a barbecue with some friends and we fell into a conversation about good places to eat pho (pronounced "fuh" - click to listen), a delicious Vietnamese soup full of delicious broth, noodles, and meat. My friends started naming Vietnamese places in Rhode Island and simultaneously crossing them off the... Continue Reading →
Yes, this recipe is for pickled watermelon, but don't go running for the hills just yet! The results are weird, but surprisingly tasty. This may just be one of the more unique recipes you experiment with. So many people love watermelon and it's devoured in mass quantities every summer. Personally, I love watermelon that is...

When my cousin, her husband, and two children (now three!) were staying with us while visiting the U.S., my family and I tried to show them around to let them try new things.

I visited Kitchen Bar during one of those moments where I felt like I wanted to try something new instead of eating at the same old restaurants in Providence (no matter how good they may be). I still wanted a filling meal that wasn't going to leave me in a food coma, but that also... Continue Reading →
I enjoy salad, but I don't necessarily go out of my way to eat it as much as I should. A few years ago, my friend made this dill yogurt salad for a summer barbecue and I couldn't get enough of it. Not only did I eat numerous servings, but I promptly went home and... Continue Reading →
The summer is prime time for fresh seafood in New England and there are a lot of restaurants purporting to provide it.
