For years, Nick's had a reputation in Rhode Island as one of the best restaurant spots to get a fantastic breakfast. That's still true, but eventually Nick's opened their doors to patrons seeking dinner and provided a completely different, yet still stellar, dining experience.

Considering that our birthdays are a week apart, my wife and I have a tradition where in lieu of birthday gifts, we go out for a nice meal where we splurge more than we normally might.

I've been pretty excited about trying Abyssinia ever since I heard that an Ethiopian restaurant opened on Wickenden Street in Providence, RI because I love berbere and zigni spices. It wasn't until a friend of mine recommended that we meet there for dinner that I finally got to try the restaurant. A little research revealed... Continue Reading →
While hunting for somewhere to grab a quick breakfast in Providence and oddly finding so many of our usual haunts closed, my wife and I decided to visit the Classic Cafe. She had been there before, but it was my first time visiting this diner-like restaurant and I'm glad I did. The Classic Cafe 865... Continue Reading →
