I don’t think Bacaro gets enough love. It’s right near Al Forno. I always tell myself I’m going to try something different but always end up getting the spareribs with pan drippings because it’s fucking amazing. They also have a tapas menu.

I’m just off Warwick Ave, near Larry’s liquors and Dons Pizza and the most we ever get is a very sporadic low thunder-rumble type sound (except for the day the blue angels were in town). We had looked at a few houses in Warwick before settling in this one. Main Ave and Carpenter st were other locations we looked at and they had loud airplane noise and a ton of traffic.

Your realtor might know what kind of airport noise you’ll get in the places you’re looking at. One question to keep in mind for any house is to ask if it’s in an area where the airport pays to replace the windows every few years. That’ll give you an idea of noise as well.

I’m like 2 miles and face the SW runway from the airport. I sometimes hear when they rev the engines on take off on the NE runway, but really have to pay attention. Take off pattern is over my house for destinations south and west which is most of the noise I hear. It seems TF Green has most of their flights 5-8 am and then 7-10 pm. In my opinion it’s no louder (except maybe for some of the real large planes) than when I was 20 miles from BWI and planes came in on approach over my house. Sure I hear planes but it doesn’t really bother me or is much of a nuisance.

I looked at several houses East of the airport and honestly didn’t notice much noise but it was always during the slower times during the day. I’d say if you have lived near an airport in pattern or near a base with military jets you probably wouldn’t notice after the first couple days.

I second this, their service is incredible. When my sister was on her last stage from ALS, I brought her to the Capital Grille. They gave us the best last outing we could have ever had. They have my forever loyalty.

If you’re willing to drive to Newport and have some money to spend, Castle Hill’s tasting menu is outstanding. $120 per person for a five course meal. There are also many other great places in Newport too depending on your preferences.

I heard really good things about Pomodoro in Bristol
