Crime & Cuisine! - Our tour with Crime & Cuisine in Providence was great! David is super knowledgeable, even sharing his own connections to the Italian mob stories of Federal Hill. The food & wines were all delicious, & I appreciated how great they were about my allergy. The walking isn’t much, just enough to keep you on your feet and moving between stops. As a local, this was a great reminder of how rich the history is in this area.
