The Aquidneck Grower's Market is a staple for Newporters of all walks of life. From 2-6 PM every…read moreWednesday during the summer, you can see them line up to sample the wares of food vendors from the island and beyond. It gets pretty darn crowded, so if you can, try to come around 2pm or closer to the end of the day to beat the scads of Lilly Pulitzer clad housewives, patchouli scented hipsters, and miscellaneous dog owners who frequent this pop-up marketplace. Parking is an absolute NIGHTMARE, so do everything you can to come by foot. Literally. The street is so narrow. You will not find a space. Do not even try. There's a good range of vendors, who sell everything from fresh fruits and vegetables (try some raspberries!) to prepared foods (curried chicken lettuce wraps at the Boru Noodle Bar stand are AMAZING), and even some non-food stands, like one that sells homemade essential oils and body glitter. My top picks are the Tricycle Ice Cream cart (so cute and Instagram friendly! Try the strawberry shortcake ice cream sandwich!), June Love's English Bakery (the titular Mrs. Love is the fabulous British dessert making grandma we didn't know we all needed), and the aforementioned Boru Noodle Bar stand, which is new to the Market, but soon to give the perennial "popular kid" Tallulah's Tacos a run for their money! Head to the Aquidneck Grower's Market before the summer's over - you'll be so glad you did! And get me a strawberry shortcake ice cream sandwich, will you?!

Tallulah's Tacos and Provençal Bakery draw the crowds, so plan accordingly. The gluteny goodies…read moredisappear quicker than pies cooling on a sill, and the tacos simply take for.ev.er to assemble. The good news? Hot, fresh and snapping a picture perfect depiction of regional whitefish fried and topped Baja style. Durn tasty. The actual "farm" to this farmer's market is slightly under-represented - felt more like a food stand fest meets Taste of Newport than an actual grower's market. Those who did bring crops filled wicker baskets and environmentally friendly plastic bags with picker speed. Sits centrally on a loud stretch of green beside a main thoroughfare, with loads of street parking (and no bike valet, hippies). Debit/EBT support coming soon, but many vendors accept cards through Square. If you get a chance, sample the English flapjacks. Yes. YES.

Stopped by the Providence Flea and there were a number of food trucks out. I was craving something…read moresavory so I went with Poppy's. The items are fairly priced (compared to other places in the hip, food-truck scene). I got the chicken finger and tots basket for $7. It came out hot, oily, and salty - exactly what I was looking for that day. Yet, I couldn't really tell if they actually made the chicken and tots or they were just frozen and then fried. Belgian waffle was alright but nothing super special (albeit, we did get it plain). Overall, Poppy's is a solid food truck option especially when it comes to convenience and affordability.

My sons favorite is the Waffle Dog. Think corn dog, but with waffle as the exterior. And I'm partial to the fruity pebble.

Will definitely be trying anything new they put out.

If you're looking for a new ice cream spot in Providence, you NEED to check out Tricycle Ice Cream!…read moreThe flavors are so good, the ice cream is super creamy, and there are so many fun options to choose from. I love finding local spots like this, especially when the customer service is very friendly and helpful, I didn't feel rush ordering as a first timer! It's in Providence there's no seating but the cream needs to defrost for 8 minutes so that gives you time to get to your location and the icecream is still perfect!!!

The mobile location makes it super cute and convenient for an easy dinner when you just don't feel like cooking, and the La Costa team couldn't have been friendlier or more professional when adhering to COVID guidelines. Even though I only tried the Pulled Chicken Tacos, they were still incredible, and some of the best that I've tried in Newport! I'm VERY picky about East Coast Mexican food, but La Costa's tacos were yummy, with soft corn tortillas, zesty and fresh slaw, and tender pulled chicken that was marinated with spices to give it a bit of a kick! Although the price was low, the portion was generous, and I left feeling full and happy! I could totally see myself bringing friends here for a casual and easy lunch, and look forward to returning to try their Lobster Roll! Other Yelpers seem to enjoy it (Brown Sugar Butter? OMG), and if it's good enough for them, it's probably good enough for me. I totally look forward to updating my review when I return!

The hot dog was tasty but on the small side for the price. The braised bacon on my sandwich almost tasted like pastrami. Very greasy and salty and I didn't enjoy the strongly smoked flavor. It changed the flavor profile to the point where it didn't remind me of a Cuban sandwich. I wish they'd still had salt potatoes because I'd have loved to try them. If I ate here again, I'd probably try a burger or stick to the hot dog.
