Lately I've been noticing what may be a sign of the economy turning around. Namely a lot of new restaurants are opening in the downtown Providence area. A new place called Roi opened a month or two ago, and today some friends from work went there at lunch. Nice place, though kind of funny as it was a bar/concert venue in the past which I've been to once or twice.
We went a couple weeks ago, but it had been Lent so I was trying to be good and avoid eating meat. Even so, their burgers looked tasty and I was craving them. This week we went back and I got a burger. Relatively conventional burger, though very tasty. What was kind of neat was that their standard cheeseburger comes with Mozzarella instead of American or Cheddar cheese. Made an interesting change from the usual burger.
Most of the restaurants downtown are a couple blocks away, and the ones that are closer than that tend to be sit-down only. Sometime next month though a new pizza place is opening right across the street. Not sure what coal-fired pizza is, but it could be a whole new challenge.
Food today: egg and cheese sandwich (300 calories), burger and fries at Roi (1200 calories), and dinner was another egg and cheese (300 calories). No exercise today, but hopefully I'm all healed up for tomorrow.
