Everyone loves a good sausage and Chez Pascal has some good sausages. The name might throw you off into thinking that this is some puffed up self-important French restaurant, but it isn't. The main restaurant is very nice, but inside they have a section called the "Wurst Kitchen." My friends and I ate there to... Continue Reading →
The Olive Tap Providence – Review
While walking through Wayland Square in Providence, RI, I stumbled upon a store called, "The Olive Tap," but it wasn't there the last time I was in Wayland Square, so it surprised me at how fast it must have been set up. Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted rows of shiny silver... Continue Reading →
Wayland Square Diner Review – Providence, RI
Great breakfasts are hard to find, which is strange when you consider that most people don't set the bar very high for what they're looking for in a breakfast. Most of us that go out for breakfast just want something hot that isn't too greasy or soggy if it's savory or something that isn't too... Continue Reading →
Gracie’s Restaurant Review – Providence, RI

This quickly became one of our favorite places to... Continue Reading →

This was my third visit to Nick's on Broadway for Breakfast. Two of those times occurred before the expansion of the restaurant to include the bar and new entrance. They also apparently serve dinner now as well, which I hear is very good. All I remembered from my first two visits were that both times,... Continue Reading →
A Visual Food Tour from Providence, RI to Louisville, KY
In order to celebrate a bachelor party in Louisville, KY, a friend and I decided to say, "no," to criminally absurd airline prices and take a road trip instead (the cost of tickets to Kentucky from Providence, RI was more than it cost to take an international flight across the Atlantic). We rented a car... Continue Reading →
El Rancho Grande Review
I'm always skeptical when people recommend Mexican restaurants to me. The reason is that there are some terrible places out there, and even worse, many people don't know what good Mexican food tastes like. This was not the case with: El Rancho Grande 311 Plainfield Street Providence, RI 02909 A few friends recommended this place... Continue Reading →
