If you're a seasonal eating type of person then a New England summer invokes connotations of fresh seafood and trips to the seashore. I enjoy seafood year-round (let's face it, most of it is frozen before it gets to us lay people anyway), but somehow it just tastes better in the summer. There are all... Continue Reading →
Lotus Pepper Food Truck Review – Providence, RI
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 →
Ted’s Montana Grill Review – Cranston, RI
My brother's 30th birthday celebration occurred this past weekend and I wanted to take him to a mid-level steakhouse for dinner. Due to the fact that it was also Mother's Day weekend, I couldn't find any local steakhouses that could accommodate a large party (about 10 people) on a Saturday night. The only place that...

Sun and Moon Korean Restaurant Review – East Providence, RI
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...

Chez Pascal – Wurst Kitchen Review – Providence, RI
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 →
Gracie’s Restaurant Review – Providence, RI
Just in case you don't read this very detailed review, let me sum it up by saying that Gracie's is [was] the best restaurant in Providence. I don't want to hear about Atwells Ave. or Federal Hill. Gracie's is [was] the reigning champ as far as I'm concerned. I know thems are fightin' words, but I'm not... Continue Reading →
Nick’s On Broadway Breakfast Review – Providence, RI
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 →
