Kitchen - Providence

In a world of Celebrity Chefs, Instagram and Everything-to-Everyone Eateries Kitchen in Providence flies in the face of conformity, juts one Man acting as Chef, Server and Hostess from until close from Thursday through Sunday.Located in a postage-stamp space at Carpenter Street on Federal Hill, a private lot next door offering plenty of parking for just fourteen seats, it is by seven o’clock most days that a line begins to form, the owner unlocking doors and personally welcoming each guest though his name and story remain largely unknown even to those who live nearby.Pressed neither for time nor customers, the Restaurant reliably filled from open to close as the middle-aged gentleman brews Coffee between taking orders and preparing them, it is from a small chalkboard menu that decisions are made, the choices limited but still covering a good range of Breakfast staples.Cracking each Farm Fresh Egg by hand and baking everything from Bread to Muffins on-site daily, the very definition of a scratch Kitchen, it was while sipping Dark Roast that one of the latter arrived sliced, buttered and griddled, the texture dainty despite being loaded with fresh Fruit that on this particular day was Blueberries.Waiting for the first two tables’ orders to be prepared, each guest served by order of arrival and attention to detail clearly the business motto, it was perhaps by the time three plates arrived with pitchers of Syrup for each, the good stuff from Vermont plainly visible in the back where everything else appears to be from a Farmer’s market as they sit without labels.Ready to tuck in, a self-service Coffee refill okayed by the owner at no extra charge, suffice it to say that although simple everything from Eggs to Homefries are prepared without fault, a light Moroccan spice faintly detectable on the Potatoes while extra-thick-cut Bacon is crisp on the edges but supple and fatty in the middle.Offered without fuss or pretense, just a guy clearly doing what he loves at his own pace, additional Carbs come in the form of fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes plus two styles of French Toast, the Croissant’s open crumb creating a light bite with pronounced Butter while the “regular” version sees Brioche well-saturated and custardy with subtle Vanilla notes.
