Providence is hands down the most interesting of all culinary experiences I’ve ever experienced.  We did the full-blown 9 course meal, $300+ per person plus the wine pairing with each course.  Although the plates are teeny tiny, trust me, you will get full, especially with all that wine.  I loved experiencing all their different and unique offerings like baked salmon skin and uni egg.  I especially enjoyed the Greyhound Shot with was grapefruit and vodka in a jelly like sphere that made you feel like you were eating an egg yolk, except the taste was exceptional.  Its not just food, this is science people.  Not just science in their food, but in the way they provide service.  I sat their watching the servers walk around the room like clockwork.  Refilling glasses, fixing people’s napkins while they were away, checking in on tables.  It was fascinating to watch.

So why should you go here? Well, if you are a big time foodie and are ok with dropping some serious cash to enjoy an out of this world experience, then I’d say this is for you. Oh, and a little advance warning, be sure to arrive on time and expect to spend a good 3 hours!
