Recipes, Restaurant Reviews, and Travel
While on the prowl for something different in the Providence area (let's be honest, while there are many fantastic eateries, it can get a little stale eating at the same places over and over), my friend and I stumbled upon Yaki Mani. The menu looked familiar and promising because we both love sushi and ramen.... Continue Reading →
When many Americans hear the word, "Ramen," they are often transported to memories of when they were young or perhaps in college where ramen meant a cheap package of dry noodles with a powdered flavor packet.

Fried chicken is one of the simple pleasures of life made immortal by almost every culture with access to chicken. They all do it a little different, but they're almost always delicious.

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'd heard about Oga's from a few food bloggers who had nothing, but good things to say about the restaurant. One blogger I read likened Oga's to a more affordable, but same quality as some of the best sushi places in Boston like Oishii (see my review here). With rave reviews like that, I knew...
