Fish Markets in New Bedford

One other point about New Bedford Fisherman's Market. Check their hours before you go.

Fish Markets in New Bedford

New Bedford Fisherman's Market is the place I go to for my seafood. Apparently they have their own day boat fleet as a source of their seafood. Great prices and I have always been satisfied with what I got there. I work with several people that also use Kyler's. I've tried them a couple of times for steamers and have been disappointed both times unfortunately.

Where to eat driving from TF Green to Milford, MA (but not Providence)?

Atwells Ave is usually insane on a Friday night, and your best bet to get into a decent restaurant there is with reservations. I would avoid that place on a Friday nite like the plague! A week night, sure, but otherwise I'll pass.

Knife Sharpening on Cape or S.E. Mass.?

I'd be real careful about using a machine to sharpen knives. The heat generated by speed of the grinding stones will adversely affect the temper of the blade.

Breakfast place from south western MA/CT border to Bennington, VT area

I'll second Blue Benn. My daughter went to school in Bennington. I've had several breakfasts and a few lunches there and haven't been disappointed.

Weekend away -- Providence, RI for "Halloween"

I would dismiss the Liberty Elm. I've been there and the service was nonexistent.

What's the best place for breakfast around Warwick RI

Spoonem's isn't bad, although I've only been there once. I like the Sunrise Cafe on West Shore Rd. they have a large assortment of omlets to choose from. They also have a few different versions of hash that they make, and, they home fries aren't previously frozen.

Nordic Lodge

It's still there, however, this price has changed. I went there a couple of years ago so that I could say I tried it and the price was $75 per person. I wasn't aware of any time restrictions while I was there.

Rhode Island - Providence & Newport

A couple of other food trucks are, Poco Loco which is a taco/burrito truck. Good, fresh tasting food there. There is also a Korean BBQ truck that I haven't tried yet but, gets pretty good reviews.

There's a pretty good one on Gano Street, but the name escapes me at the moment

Good Southern Cuisine / BBQ in Providence/Patwucket, RI

LJ's BBQ on East Ave in Pawtucket (just over the line from the east side of Providence) is your best bet for now.

United BBQ in Providence

Anybody know if there's anything in the works for United BBQ? I was really disappointed when they closed. I thought they were one of the best options in the area for barbecue.
