Providence / Restaurant

Yes, you can get the best baklava you've ever had here (the owner trained with "the Baklava master" of Aleppo, Syria as a child), but they have so much more, from stuffed dates to shawarma to falafel. Don't visit without trying one of their teas. Voted one of Bon Appetit's best new restaurants in 2019!

Providence / Restaurant

New Haven-style-inspired pizzas and classic, crispy thick-crust cheese and pepperoni, plus locally harvested raw bar, clam and seafood appetizers. Pizza Marvin’s interior design pays tribute to ’80s and ’90s nostalgia, with gingham-printed table tops and retro quahog and Rhode Island Red chicken art on the walls. Even the gumball machine is stocked with colorful gumballs printed with the Pizza Marvin logo.

Providence / Bookstore

Cellar Stories is, hands-down, my favorite used book store of all time. I have never left without buying a book. They have especially large sci-fi, art, cooking, and antiquarian sections, as well as a lot of great books on local New England history. Their organization system is lovingly chaotic, but profoundly helpful to finding exactly what you didn't know they needed. A must for any reader or artist.

Providence / Shop

Hungry Ghost is an artist-owned studio and shop that sells a range of merch (all printed in-house), as well as repurposed vintage apparel, patches, pins, local zines, VHS tapes, and other deadstock eccentricities. Great for souvenirs and niche Rhode Island joke products (like their notorious "Rhode Island Slut" sweatshirt, inspired by a scene in the original Dumb & Dumber movie).

Providence / Restaurant

A new ramen joint with exceptional homemade broth and thin Hong-Kong style noodles and a small but exciting set of Japanese cocktails. Dessert is one of the main stars, made by former Big King pastry chef Millie, who specializes in eclectic ice cream flavors. Come during the day and you can sometimes buy a single scope from the front window!
