P ROVIDENCE IN THE N EWS The New York Times recently wrote a very interesting article about Providence and how the author would spend 36 hours in our wonderful city. The author writes “Home to an Ivy League college, one of the best design schools in the country and a major culinary institute, Providence, unsurprisingly, has exceptional food, compelling art and architecture, a thriving gay scene and an inordinate number of very smart people.Yet the city remains unpretentious and affordable, a place where even the best restaurants rarely demand reservations”.
