It’s backyard barbecue season, and if you have a meat eschewing guest in your backyard, do more for them than provide a dry soy patty or a store-bought crudite platter for them to gnaw on. Elevate your vegetarian grilling menu to new heights and be sure your veggie friends keep coming back without feeling like they […]
Known by the Johnson & Wales University (JWU) community as The Bling Chef, Chef Frank Terranova has been an integral part Rhode Islanders’ lives. For 28 years, he has taught at JWU and for 21 years he has been the face of the JWU & NBC 10 News collaboration, “Cooking with Class.” Unfortunately, both of these chapters […]
The first time I tried bubble tea was four years ago in New York City. I’d heard rumors of this mysterious drink, but had no idea what it was, so when my friend brought me to her go-to spot and helped me order a tea (I just asked for whatever she was having), I […]

A meal out shouldn’t be an exercise in snobbery or a touting of who’s who in the culinary scene; it should be great food shared with companions. It’s even better if it’s an adventure, too, whether that […]
Do you ever have a day where you feel like you’re channeling Mr. Rogers? A day where you feel compelled to yell out, “It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood!”? That’s how I felt on the RI Red Food Tour in Downcity. I don’t normally quote Mr. Rogers, but it was one of the first […]
It’s hard to imagine writing an article that will do Yoleni’s justice now that I’ve essentially moved in — in fact, that’s what my roommate has started telling people, and it’s only a slight exaggeration. Since their soft opening on May 11, I’ve been at Yoleni’s all but three days. Prior to leaving on Memorial […]
2018 has held very few changes in RI weather. From January to March we got “constant, unforgiving snowstorms,” and as we all know, this year, on account of the cold, April’s name was changed to “This-cannot-be-goddamn-April.” But we are finally — finally — rounding a corner.

A friend recently posted a link to my Facebook wall for a travel company that creates mystery weekend vacations; guests give their budget and the types of activities they like, and the company arranges the flights and hotel without telling travelers where they’re going.
