Recipes, Restaurant Reviews, and Travel
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 →
During a "Guys' Night," a few of my friends and I went to North in Providence, RI. It is a relatively "young" restaurant having been established in late 2012 in place of the now closed, "Ama's," but has quickly made a name for itself. My friends and I had never been there before and were... Continue Reading →
Chef Benjamin Sukle and his wife Heidi, opened Birch Restaurant in June 2013. The restaurant has received national acclaim since then while Chef Sukle has been nominated twice for a James Beard Award. Not too long after they opened, I finally had a chance to visit the restaurant with friends. Upon entering the restaurant, I wasn't... Continue Reading →
Birch opened up in June 2013 and I finally had a chance to visit the restaurant when I went there to eat with friends. When I entered the restaurant, I wasn't ready for how small it is.

While I've only had the opportunity to go twice, the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular at Roger Williams Park Zoo is one of my favorite new traditions. For those of... Continue Reading →
It's a little embarrassing to admit that despite growing up around Providence, RI, I only recently had my first Venda Ravioli experience over the summer. After eating there, I'm more than disappointed in myself for not trying it sooner and sad that I went so many years without it! Almost everyone knows the name as... Continue Reading →
In full disclosure, I'm personally acquainted with the owners and employees of the Lotus Pepper food truck. That means my review may be a little biased, but generally, I tried my best to be objective. It didn't hurt their cause though that I happen to love Vietnamese food, which Lotus Pepper specializes in serving! What... Continue Reading →
I've had Korean food before, but mostly in the form of delicious pickled vegetables, noodles, and kimchi (a famously fermented, spicy cabbage). Hearing that I'd never had a very popular dish called, Bibimbap that consists of an extremely hot stone pot filled with rice, vegetables, meat, and topped with an egg, my girlfriend insisted that...
