Frisky fries has the same dressed fries. They aren’t as good as a couple of gaggers but it does hit the spot if you have the craving.

Driving your street legal bike at night with the lights off. Or if they aren’t working at all. Is the same effect. Same thing can happen with a car. THAT is the reckless part.
Off road vehicles have headlights too. They don’t have turn signals. But that’s not the issue.
RECKLESSNESS is the root cause here.

Let’s be clear. The issue isn’t “dirt bikes”. Because this very thing can happen with street legal bikes and conversely riding an off road vehicle smartly on roads doesn’t result in this either. In The Caribbean off road and on road vehicles share the roads all the time without incident.
The issue is being reckless and riding like it’s play time.

Nothing wrong with Dave’s in a pinch. But go to a real bakery. I’m a fan of Palmeris and deptrilos.

It’s RI. Where are lobsters NOT cheap?
Even good fish mongers or grocery stores max you’ll pay is $15 a lb. Most have them at $10-$12 generally. Watch for sales at $6-$9 a lb.
Galilee docks you’ll find boats selling straight from catch. Those will be cheaper but really only about the best sale price grocers will have.

Gracie’s or Mills Tavern $$$$
Pot au Feu or Camille’s $$$
Circe or The District $$
If you’re feeling frisky. The Beef Barn in North Smithfield.

Yes. Go to google and search “best places to eat in RI”.
Sort of price so you find something in your price range.

High end ($$$$): Gracie’s, the coastguard house, mills tavern.
Middle ($$$): Persimmon, The East End, Siena, Los Andes, CAV
Low end ($$): cook & dagger, Bristol oyster bar or Providence Oyster Bar, the District, Durks
There is a range in dining style here. Durks, The a district, the oyster bars are fairly casual. Gracie’s is very posh. The rest are middle of the road when it comes to dress and comportment.
All are good places to eat though.

It’s not a good spot. And other places have either better locations or better facilities.

That’s my wife and I’d date night special. When the kids have all gone out and we are home alone. We grab 4 lobsters (or sometimes two and I grill a steak) roast up a bag of crispy shoe string French fries. And nab a bottle of wine to share.
I have a large summer time platter that I put the fries and lobsters all on. We sit down in the living room together. Put on a move and chow down in comfy pants and without feeling like pigs as we tear apart lobsters.
It’s a great stay-in date night.

At home. Most fish mongers or grocery like Dave’s will steam them in store.
Cheaper. Easy as pie. Eat at home.

Both my wife and I went to RIC. Served us well. I don’t know of it having a bad rep. Only that some programs are better elsewhere.

Reply to 19 Best Fine Dining Restaurants In Providence According To Trip Advisor. You Have A Favorite? by Chris_Mannix
They have some old stand bus that just aren’t so hot anymore for a variety of reasons.
For my wife and I. Gracie’s is still always our fave. But we limit how often we go because of the cost.
Persimmon is really good.
Mills tavern was always a fave but there have been service issues the last few times.
New rivers is excellent.
We are super biased to the Providence Oyster Bar. Our two favorite bartenders work there. As does our oldest son. So it’s sort of our go to. But I suppose it’s not “fine dining” to most folks.
Circe is excellent.
I’d add Nicks on Broadway to this list and dump Capriccio. It was amazing back in the day. Less so now. And it’s in a basement. A basement.

But that’s not how it works. If there was there would be an emergency broadcast on all platforms accordingly.

Sorry that when we do our training it scares you. I mean if we walked down the streets with guns loaded I’d understand the concern. But driving in a convoy in hummers and deuces. Whatever.

National guard and/or reserve training weekend.
What’s the point of the question. Did you think it was cool or worried about something?

Dave’s always has some in their coolers. You need to check multiple.
Also. I personally buy 4-5 every year and keep multiple in my chest freezer. They literally will keep for decades
