Exploring Providence

Pot Au Fue

February 23rd, 2013

Providence, RI

Abstract

We were in Providence for a little fun night, we had talked about what we wanted to do for dinner and our first choice did not have any times.  We then pulled up open table and found a little french restaurant and it sounded pretty good and had the appropriate time slots so we made a reservation.  This is not the end of the story though, about halfway through the movie we were going to we received a call from the owner and he stated that the time on open table was incorrect, and they would not be able to see us for about 45 minutes after our initial reservation. We said okay, still excited about some of the food options.

Groupon Awesomeness

Elephant Walk

November 11th, 2012

Waltham, MA

Abstract

I had never been to Elephant Walk, although Tara had a couple times.  Neither of us had been to this location in Waltham.  We had a party in town later, a Groupon and no reservation.   We ended up sitting and eating at the bar but had a great time.

Elephant walk is Cambodian and French cuisine.  Many dishes may be labeled one or the other but usually the influences cross path.  Our food was great, with amazing flavor usage of fruit and spices.  I get for sure why Tara likes this place.  I felt every dish was well balanced, and if you like south-asian style food this is a must check for you.

Not that we needed it but they have Vegan and Gluten free menu choices as well, about a third of the menu actually.
