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!
A beautiful melding of old and new architecture, this museum houses a wonderful collection-Ancient Art ,18th & 19th century furniture, Impressionist paintings, textiles, plus rotating special exhibitions. And museum store is great, and full of products made by RISD (Museum of Art, Rhode Island School of Design) graduates.
My favorite place for a walk. Beautiful colonial homes with the Providence skyline peeking over roofs and around street corners. I feel lucky to live in Providence every time I walk down it.
One of Providence's weirdest and best kept secrets. A holdover from the years from Providence was considered "the Jewelry capitol" of the US, Wolf E. Myrow is a vintage jewelry warehouse selling closeout jewelry supplies and wholesale jewelry findings. They've been around for fifty years and most of their stock is even older—you could wander around for hours and still only see a tiny portion of their collection of beads, tiny figurines, Swarovski crystals, and chandelier findings.
