Vegan Eating On The Road: Pawtucket, Rhode Island

Being a touring Vegan musician is never easy; there's a delicate balance between starving and knowing what, when and where you can grub. If you travel throughout a region enough, you get to know the standbys, the health food stores and the one-offs.

Sometimes it's the potato chips that save you. Other times, it's the grocery store hummus and pita. Every so often though, you get a treat and find a new veg*n place you never knew existed.

Enter Garden Grille Cafe in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. I was in the area recently playing a festival and happened upon this spot. It's an unassuming joint located in what could best be described as a strip mall. The food is straight cafe fare; sandwiches, wraps, pizzas and salads.

I'd be hard pressed to write a proper review, because, well, I was hungry and the sweet taste of vegan nosh always skews one's vision when all you've had is water and some nuts – to me it was all delicious. So, I'll let the pictures do the talking.

    Ahh, yes! The Ocean State's one and only vegetarian restaurant. We moved here 7 months ago, and are very grateful for our huge kitchen. :) The Garden Grille Café is wicked yummy—even when you're not surviving on nuts and water! (Rudy, let us know when you're coming through again, and we'll make you a proper meal. :)

    If you're in Providence, there are several places that know how to treat a vegan right. One of our favorites is Nice Slice, a pizza place at 267 Thayer Street, near Brown and RISD. They always have at least two vegan selections on hand, and can make a pie in about 15 minutes.
