Providence’s Newest Watering Hole
The Jewelry District is the focus of much ambition for Providence, and the site of so much change. Unsurprising then, that restaurants share that enthusiasm for economic growth. The area was quickly the number one choice for a brand new restaurant and live music space, The Village.
Pat’s Pastured’s Pawtucket Premiere
Pat’s Pastured cart, you know, the pasture-raised, crowd-sourced, pop-up, hyphen-rich purveyor of breakfast sandwiches rolls from the Hope Street Farmers Market and into the weekly rotation at the Pawtucket winters market in November. For information on when you can know the joy of eating a sausage and egg while buying sausage and eggs, check the Pat’s Pastured website, and stay tuned for news on their food truck.
Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market Opens
The Pawtucket Farmers Market returns in November, and thank god, because where else are you going to be able to buy a ukulele, learn how to weave a basket and buy pastured leg of lamb on a Saturday? All your old friends are there, but there will be some new faces too, like that Ziggy guy at Fox Point Pickles. Don’t make eye contact, you’ll buy pickles. 1005 Main Street, Pawtucket.
Clean Plate Opening
Clean Plate has moved in at the site of the now closed Deville’s on Water Street. Clean Plate RI offers traditional American lunch and breakfast Tuesday through Sunday from 8am to 2pm. Slated to open in October, at time of reading you ought to be able to test out their Reuben with Gruyère cheese on Iggy’s bread, or French toast breakfast sandwiches. 345 South Water Street, Providence. 621-8888.
Flan Y Ajo and Bodega Malasaña Finally Move In Together
Diego Perez, owner of both Flan Y Ajo and Bodega Malasaña has seized the opportunity to combine his two properties into one larger space. He probably didn’t need to spend time in the Knowledge District to consider the synergy of tapas and wine, but in addition to saving himself a walk, now all his faithful flaneurs will be able to enjoy wine pairings in a larger, but still intimate setting. The combined restaurant is expanding into part of the reconfigured former Tazza space, and, apparently a diva, is now simply named Flan. Flan will offer the same excellent locally sourced food combined with well-selected imports in a revolving tapas menu. 186 Union Street, Providence. 432-6656
