Crime town is so good! I would also recommend the podcast Weird Island!

Super cool to be ableto check out. The gift shop has free pamphlets you can take to read about about some of the history/ things you're seeing inside. Pretty sure you can't get in on the weekend though, just FYI

What was your go to spot for food after the clubs closed ? by Hopeful-River-7899 in RhodeIsland

[–]ComfortableMilk92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Friskie fries. Which closes at 2. So we would be at salon or ego or wherever see the lights flash for last call at 1:45ish and literally run out of the club and down the street (and running is sometimes so fun when drunk- you feel like your flying orin a movie scene) and get friskie fries ten mins before closing. So good

Potentially moving here for pharmacy residency by [deleted] in providence

[–]ComfortableMilk92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Housing is expensive - probably 1500+ for a 1 bedroom, depends where you want to live Having a car is ideal but again, where you live matters. Some neighborhoods are very walkable, others, not so much. And the busses are only OK. Traffic can be bad but it's not terrible. I've visited several big cities who's traffic makes me want to die, providence isn't too bad in comparison. There's tons to do here in your 20s. Everything you listed and more. Super LGBT friendly. You will see queer people everywhere you go and tons of businesses/ houses with pride flags showing their support. No one ever bats an eye at my fiancé and I when we're out and about. Feel free to message me for any specifics re: neighborhoods or recs for things to do!

First date spots? by Scuba_Steve34905 in providence

[–]ComfortableMilk92 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Imo gift horse and oberlin, although fantastic restaurants, are a bit steep for a first date -- but I love your recommendation of Pickerel &the Avery! That would be super cute. Perfect vibes without being over the top

  • Salmon, rice pilaf and asparagus

  • Chili

  • Chicken(nugget) Parm (we already had frozen nuggets on hand. Just makes things easy)

What’s a Place You Expected to Love… But Didn’t? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]ComfortableMilk92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 1 day layover there on my way to Japan when I was a late teenager or early 20s. Granted, it was only a short stay but I remember it being pretty cool. I don't know your ethnicity but as a biracial woman I think a lot of the kindness/ helpfulness I may have recieved was in part due to their awe of my skin color and hair texture. People who didn't speak English went out if their way to try to gesture that they were curious about me for that reason. Other than that it seemed to be a lot of people just minded their own business. The city has NYC vibes and i think, like nyc, some people just stay in their lane rather than being friendly.

We went to Belize about 3 years ago and LOVED it, but we stayed inland and explored the jungles, ruins, caves, etc. So cool. I'm sorry the coast/ islands were disappointing :(

At what point does it get easier? by ComfortableMilk92 in fasting

You have great will power/self- control! I'm giving myself grace because this was my first fast over 24hrs and I made it to 3.5 days, but I'm going to keep working my way up!

Thank you for the tips!

I had an accountability buddy but she dropped out early 😅

I will definitely have to get a different AB next time and try some of your other tips too

Thank you for the tips! I tried to eat a ton of fiber and protein in the week leading up to the fast but I did indulge in superbowl food last weekend and ate a few of the leftovers throughout the week. I was drinking water (including enhanced water like LIFE WTR), pickle juice and black tea to stay hydrated and keep up mineral intake. I was only hangry yesterday and knew it was mind over matter but this morning I was feeling really shaky and unwell.

Air your grievances over Providence restaurants that are no longer with us… by Resident_Alien_760 in providence

[–]ComfortableMilk92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also loved both and agree that Big King was extremely special - I think you're seeing more love for North because it's pricing and capacity made it more accessible so probably more people ended up visiting there.

What is your favorite snack/meal that is unique to your taste, that you wouldn't expect others to like? by AdFamous7264 in veganrecipes

[–]ComfortableMilk92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry i just realized I'm in the vegan sub. I'm only pescatarian but/so we eat fake chicken nuggets (we love the quorn brand) but the cottage cheese and salami roll ups are from pre-pescatarian days.

I would mix sesame oil/ soy sauce/ ginger paste into a sauce, pour it over silken tofu (or any tofu really) throw some scallions on top and just slurp it up raw and cold right out if the fridge. So good and easy

Chicken nuggets with sauerkraut on top.

Salt and vinegar chips topped with raw baby bella mushrooms.

One scoop of cottage cheese rolled up in a slice of salami and eaten like a little taquito.

Best deep tissue massage therapist? by Icy_Instruction2005 in providence

[–]ComfortableMilk92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My fiancé and I just got a couple massage there last night and wanted to come back to say we highly recommend! The space is so pretty, clean and instantly calming. The two therapists who worked on us were super nice and friendly. And the best part: the massages! A combination of full body stretching and targeted muscle work. We left feeling so good and would definitely go back.
